we wil see for definate next year whether it works as expected or not, if it does, happy days, it'll be time to go alot faster than has been seen yet with a gtir ;-)

cheers

im hoping everything goes as planned. I have much better things waiting for the engine and turbo setup which will make things far more interesting if this all works out ;-)

thats the idea, its not a new idea, i basically ripped the idea off of some of the big horsepower, very fast fwd honda drag cars in the us, they use a similar cuff with great success. They had the same problem with gearcase breaking.


for a drag car, none tbh, i've worked out my maximum mph in 4th and its plenty..

this isn't something that got made to make money as in all honesty i only expect pete and myself to ever have one. Its been made to solve a problem for drag car gtirs. Lou has run good times without it, as have a few others. For a circuit car, trackday car its not worth worrying about, just dont launch like an ass...lol.. If however you really want to build a drag car, with a gtir, this with a straight cut gearset is probably the best you can do to try to stop the gear case exploding.

Cheers for the reply mate,

tbh I don't really use my car to launch, its being built for a fast road/track car, that I want to be able to use (like most I assume:lol: ) But the casing is the only thing making me paranoid! My gearset will be a PPG, so no problems there.

I am going to get my casing modded, me and a friend are going to do it, I've been looking at several pictures and plan on making them alot stronger somehow, But it will be done.

What are you doing for the bit thats cut out the casing? Or is that just a dummy casing to see if the gearset works with that bar in place?

Cool idea though, I take it its got bearings in it aswell? :-D

Reverse lights

Hello everyone,

This is a bit of a weird one. I have a N15 sss Pulsar with a RNN14 SR20DET installed. I have done all the wiring and the car drives great etc. No problems there. The only issue is that I am trying to get the reverse lights going and the speedo working also. I did not see the engine in the GTIR, only after the engine had been installed into the N15 Pulsar. This means I do not know what the reverse light plug looked like on the GTIR. I only have two plugs left and I can't seem to find the wires that make it work. I only have myself on this, and it makes it hard to do continuity checks from one side to the other. I know where the wires go over by the driver's side strut tower but can't find where they end up over by the gearbox.
The plug on the N15 gearbox for Neutral and reverse switches looks exactly the same as any Skyline, Silvia, Pulsar, etc that I have ever done but I cannot find the matching plug on the RNN14 loom.

Any help would be great.

Sorry for the repetition, just trying to get my point across as vividly as possible.

I have spent the last half hour or so searching also, couldn't find anything relevant.

the reverse light switch is built into the gearbox at the bottom near the end of the box away from the bell housing its the only plug on the actual gearbox

If you take the wiring harness where it comes through the bulkhead the first branch off it it the injector plugs and earths. The second branch off is the( Maf a black plug) then the grey plug is the gearbox reversing light doe,s that help . :)

id replace all the synchros while your on,
nothing to say another one will go a few weeks after replacing 2nd,
and it having to come out again.

Get a new clutch fork as well if you don't have one. Gear intermittantly crunching was the first indication my fork was on it's way out.
