    Default R33 Gearbox Conversion

    Has anybody done this conversion, i want to put a 5 speed from a r33 gts-t into my car because the box is getting noisy, i don't think it's liking the power for some reason
    does thias bolt straigh up to the RB30 block, what clutch is required and what needs to be done to the tailshaft end?
    How much would i be looking at for this conversion.

    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thankyou.
    Colin.

    its a straight bolt up. you need the NA flywheel not the turbo one as the diameter is different. you can get higher clamping pressure clutch kits for them. the r33 rb25 box is $1500+.
