WTB BROKEN GEARBOX

I'm looking for a micra gearbox I want to trash for the output splines from the diff to make a custom drive system for my EV project.

does it need to be a micra?

so that it will still mate up with the standard micra drive shafts....

Hey,

I have a cvt that Im pretty sure is stuffed sitting here doing nothing. I also have both drive shafts/cvs for the cvt as well..

Thanks

hmmm, interesting..... I need 2 left hand drive shafts (just to be difficult)...... arn't the splines and stuff different from manual? any pics?

Umm... I did a cvt to manual swap and I removed the cvt shafts and swapped in the manual ones. I didnt measure exactly but the long shaft(drivers side) looked the same to me. The left one is different cvt to manual. Im pretty sure its shorter. I didnt really look at the splines on the box end. They hub end fitted fine though.

I might be able to dig up a photo of the cvt ones.. hang on.

i know a cpl of wreckers with 5 manual micras in total, i can collect from the local one if u want?

that's sounds like a deal..I'm on holidays until wednesday 4th november......who much are they going for... considering I only need the diff...... any info would be g. appreciated... I'll check my local wreaker 2 see what he's got (shudda done that first, but usually they don't keep the broken ones.....)...hay qwerty... need a real closeup or even macro of the drive splines, gearbox end.... please email the pix i've they're too big..... if you want....

Hey,

I will most probably be going to where they are currently stored tomorrow or Sunday. I will see what I can do.

Also, I'm also interested how much they charge for a gearbox..

If I ever look at dropping in a low km engine I would probably like a newer box as well..

Thanks

An RS5F30A can be found in lots of old front drive nissans from the 80's. Anything 1.3L or there abouts would be a good bet. I'm sure you'd be able to find something cheap/free.

How soon do you need it? Not sure why i didn't think of it sooner, in a cpl of weeks I'm having my gbox rebuilt, clutch pack lsd diff etc, u can have the one i'm removing, 100k kms good nick, and u don't have to scrap a box 2 get it, let me know.

thanks mickey.... that's sounds like a deal..... I'm not in a real hurry, I'm at the final design decision making and collecting bits to get it back to a rolling chasis.
