Palazzo 477 Report post Posted September 19, 2018 Any recommendations before I google? Getrag 260, still functions ok, just tired. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zero 1162 Report post Posted September 19, 2018 The one and only person I would recommend would be Kayne Barrie. He really is a genius when it comes to gearboxes and diffs. He is just north of Auckland, so not in Wellington, but well worth shipping it up. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Palazzo 477 Report post Posted September 19, 2018 I’ll probably get him to do the spare lsd, which is up here, but the car is in Wgtn, in one piece. Labour out and in plus shipping would make it too pricey I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hop 1 Report post Posted October 26, 2018 (edited) I am almost finished refreshing a box I bought as a spare. Here is some information I acquired. I used this DIY as a https://www.eeuroparts.com/blog/11163/getrag-260-synchro-replacement-part-1-teardown/ I have not been able to find any other information on the process. Ive had easier times with Japanese gearboxes regarding parts availability. Syncros are available via dealer apx $300 NZD each!!! (I got some good condition 2nd hand ones for 2nd and 3rd). You will not find any aftermarket options for this. Front and rear bearings apx $200 each. Layshaft bearings apx $50 each. There are multiple needle roller bearings in this box mine were all fine. Seals F R and selector your looking at about $60 for the 3. Not sure if you can still get them new but iirc $3500.
