ive noticed that its mainly the r32 boxes that are pull type clutch which would have made it easier as i could have modified parts to use the sierra clutch pedal then with a cable
Yes and no! The OS Giken box is not the same shape as the standard item so it depends on what tunnel mods were originally done to accomodate the standard Skybus box.
The OG Giken conversion uses a proper belhousing thats only available from myself.
hi martin i know you still do the os giken conversion but can you still do the skyline bellhousing conversion as that would be much cheaper.thanks

Same box just different actuation of the clutch lever, it matters not which one you use as its not used anyway.
2wd car has an integral bellhousing, so fitment would be a nightmare.
If you want a strong box, fit a Supra R154 turbo 5sp box. Although as the drift guys are starting to use them, they are getting very expensive and hard to come by.
just thinking it may be a worthwhile mod to a rwd cossie ,

Someone has been doing the GTS-t box modded for other cars, not sure who it was.
Its not power that you rate boxes at its the torque. A mate ran standard GTS-t boxes on a 550ft/lbs motor. They work but are at the limit of the box.
Don't get the turbo box mixed up with a non turbo GTS box, Non turbo ones are crap.
afaik mine is standard box running over 550 bhp and over 450 lbft and its had some hard work including quite a few sub 4 sec 0 - 60s but still going strong. defo a bloody good gearbox.
