RE: Calling gearbox identification specialists :)

[Terry Rudd]

Aren't the X 71B boxes out of Z18 Bluebirds - ZL71B's are FJt boxes for sure - don't know about this one, may be something Frankenstein has been made up here. Like most flywheels, an FJ flywheel will only fit in one position and I think we've been told in the past that the early Silvia FJ has a slightly different flywheel but I've never had anything to do with the early FJ to have any experience with this problem.   What other Nissan 4's have a 8 bolt flywheel? If anyone knows then that may give some clues.   regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Craig Coffey Sent: Friday, 6 September 2002 10:44 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Calling gearbox identification specialists :) I don't know much about the markings but, the box i've got here has "Z L 71B"  and it's suposed to be out of a fjt silvia, and yes that's how it is on the side of the box.                                          # 3           Regards Craig                                                                                            ----- Original Message ----- From: dceptn To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 06, 2002 11:49 AM Subject: Calling gearbox identification specialists :) G'day,   Ive been search for an FJ20ET gearbox for awhile, and i came across one for sale in the local classified paper, and naturally i rang up, talked to the guy, he seemed decent told me abit bout the history; it was recently used on a CA18DET but never ran due to an unfinished project, and before that it was at the wreckors from a S12 Silvia. It sounded all good, i made the purchase and went off.   It came with a clutch and flywheel. As soon as i get home, i took the flywheel, and attempted to fit it onto my fj20 block. It wouldn't fit on at all. The holes were slightly smaller then the standard FJ20 flywheel bolts, and also, the holes do not align perfectly. At this point im thinking, have i been mislead? Or are there different sized flywheels for different FJ20's. Eg. my engine is a skyline one, and this flywheel from a silvia version. So much, to my confusion ive taken some pics and hopefully some gearbox guru can put a possitive identification on this box i've just bought.   Any help will be appreciated greatly.   Jarrod :|   Pics at: http://dceptn.orcon.net.nz/gearbox/ --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
