R154 gearbox question....

Hi all.

 

I've found a gearbox for sale, its from a breakers. Matey emailed me saying he was 320 for it, its in good condition and from a 91 Turbo Mk3 supra manual.

 

My question is: How can I tell its 100% a R154 gearbox. There must be a part number listed on the box somewhere, or will it actually say R154? I'd like to get a photo of any numbers on the box which could tell me this box is definitely a turbo manual box.

 

Thanks :D

WASTE OF TIME!!!!!

 

the guy wouldnt even send me some photos. he sounded like he barely knew english and said he wanted me address to give me a quote to ship it to my door!! Sounds like a time waster. Wanted me to send payment without seeing any photos.

 

Idiots! Rant over....

I'll be running 400 with the w58 with stage 4 clutch and flywheel. that wont last forever with that kinda power. so will be on the hunt for a R154, until then i just wont hit the box hard constantly, though it may fail anyway.

 

new gearbox will probably mean a new bhp target is possible :)
