The R34 GTR Getrag Gearbox Conversion involves replacing the standard 5-speed manual transmission in an R32 or R33 Skyline GT-R with the 6-speed Getrag transmission from the R34 GTR.
This conversion provides improved gear ratios, enhanced strength, and better drivability, especially for tuned engines.
The kit typically includes the Getrag 6-speed transmission, transfer case, a suitable clutch (like the Coppermix), and all necessary components for installation.
Key aspects of the conversion:
Transmission:
The Getrag 233 6-speed manual transmission from the R34 GTR is the core component.
Clutch:
A Coppermix clutch, or similar, is often included in the kit for handling increased power output.
Transfer Case:
The R34 GTR’s transfer case is also included and is crucial for the all-wheel-drive system.
Driveshaft:
Modifications to the driveshaft are necessary, often involving a combination of R32/R33 and R34 components.
Crossmember:
A new crossmember is typically included to properly mount the Getrag transmission in the R32 or R33 chassis.
Shifter:
A suitable shifter, like a C’s short shifter, is often included.
Compatibility:
The conversion is popular for R32 and R33 Skyline GT-R owners seeking to upgrade their drivetrains.
Benefits of the conversion:
Improved Gear Ratios:
The R34 GTR’s 6-speed gearbox offers closer gear ratios, allowing for better acceleration and more optimal use of engine power.
Increased Strength:
The Getrag gearbox is known for its robustness and ability to handle higher power levels than the stock 5-speed.
Enhanced Drivability:
The tighter gear ratios and improved shifting feel can make the car more enjoyable to drive, especially in performance applications.
