any reason why you can't use a stumpy turbo skyline gearbox? they'll be plenty stronger, and you could probably get one cheaper than a 63a.

is the box pictured one you have that is fisted, or just a pic you found somewhere? I could use another one of them too. My synchro's are getting a bit sad.

The one I have in bits has similar issues. I'm hoping that a transfusion of thinner oil might help my synchro's a bit. Which parts of your are past it? There is a chance some of my spares may be of some use to you? Although rust doesn't descriminate much.

Thanks mate. I'm running really heavy full synth gear oil in mine. It's not really the right stuff, but I got it for the right price.
