da9 dumped all the gear box oil

[PHASE2]

hey guys was on a cruise on the weekend just a very sunday cruise through the hills, i heard a noise so i pulled over straight away and turned off the car, i then looked under the car to see all the gear box oil fluding out extremely quickly, its still yet to get checked out but what do you guys think it might be??

thanks ryan.

[Zilli]

i think its a safe bet you blew your gearbox up bro

could be wrong though

hehe

[PHASE2]

if some thing in the gear box has gone, is it worth re building it, or buying a 2nd hand one, all the syncros in the gear box are all good, and i would hate to buy another one and the syncros are gone!

A reman tranny is like $400-$600USD with core exchange. Should come with a warranty too. If the gear oil was flooding out it's safe to say you cracked the case or blew the seals. If you cracked the case a new/reman is the only way to go. If it's just a seal take it to a shop and change the seals. $200USD for all new seals at most, I don't know labor rates there.

[PHASE2]

well hopefully its just a seal, that would make my bank balance a little more happier lol, will keep you all posted when i find out the hopefully non bad news tomorrow haha, thanks.

[Zilli]

if its only a seal it wouldnt be gushing out man

i remember this happened to me in my old pulsar, cracked the diff housing... somehow

hey guys, havent found out yet, but i am doing the ring arounds for a 2nd hand gear box, and just my luck no one in adelaide has one besides woodville and there waaaayyyy to expensive lol, do any other gear box's fit or has anyone had one rebuilt? and how much thanks.

[SKREMN]

same thing happend to me
you have most likely shreadded off a tooth of the gears and that shot into the cashing and cracked/made a hole in it
I had a hole in mine about 5by5cm's big it was pretty easy to spot also
you will require a noew houseing and new gear its better of getting a new box

[PHASE2]

hey if any one can source a 91 manual gear box with km's in melbourne and prices it would be really appriciated, let me know if you can help thanks.

[ECU-MAN]

sounds like you have cracked the gearbox housing,

but you should realy check to make sure your innser cv joint hasnt poped out of the gearbox

[LO_N_SXC]

I know of a wrecker here in Melb that sells them for $520ish and I got it down to $470 coz I've been buying parts from them for the past 4yrs cheapes I think you will ever find and with 12month warranty too!

[mr crex]

ahhh that was you

did you get back home alright?

hope ya didnt have to wait around for hours.

[PHASE2]

haha 3 hours for a tow truck lol it sucked, any way guys i need a 100% answer here i have found a jap da9 front cut at a wreckers with v tech engine, can anyone tell me if the gear box from this one will bolt up to my ls engine ect thanks, if this is a no go ill contact you LO_N_SXC

[Weq]

no it wont, as i am assuming u have a d-series engine.

[PHASE2]

so the gear box from jap v tech da9's deffintly dont bolt up? can you modify them to fit at all? i really need to know cos its a full rebuild for a good price.

[SKREMN]

it will bolt up no worries the only thign is its got different ratios
just get one if its cheap

[aznsiko]

hmm.. well my gearbox leaked once too.. but turned out nothing.. the problem was i overfilled the fluid a lil bit and when running under high pressure.. its seeped out between at the bottom just between the box and block... but turned out all good..

[PHASE2]
