5 Speed Gearbox Discussion

This ad isn't mine but I'm sure it's of interest to a few people here. I'd get it myself if I didn't just buy a 60a 5 speed.
It seems very well priced, I'm sure it won't last long! http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Datsun-A-S ... cc39e1:g:KXEAAOSwUV9WmH99 EDIT Title changed to better match the direction this thread ended up going.

Not too many drive an A12 nowadays. And $1100 is a lot when you can buy a Toyoda 5-speed for $400 and adapt it.
That factory 5-speed crossmember is nice 32010-7251P Ratios are: 1 - 3.757 2 - 2.374 3 - 1.659 4 - 1.291 5 - 1.000 Attach file:  F5C56A_.jpg (84.55 KB)

Dave, while the T50 box is strong the stock ratios still suck. I've been beating up all the options to get a sturdy box with decent ratios that won't cost $2500-$3000........or more.
If I could find the cluster gears for the close ratio 4 speed II have enough parts to build 2 ultra close and one mid close 56 series box................I'd be set for the next 15 years. Tom

The one that just sold was a wide-ratio box (standard GX ratios), so you didn't miss out ...

Might as well bid on it for a spare at that price
Nissan Competition Part No. 32010-7251P is the "Option 1 W/R" gearbox, same as the GX except that 4th gear is 1.291 instead of the GX's 1.254. ![Open in new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm219/ddgonzal/Datsun+1200/wiki/competition/Competition198443.jpg");) Attach file: F5C56A_left.jpg (135.16 KB) F5C56A_right.jpg (138.62 KB) F5C56A_rear.jpg (70.98 KB) F5C56A_front.jpg (52.71 KB)

why is he advertising it as a close ratio?
also these boxes are not tested just word of mouth could be crunchier than a kit kat. Be great if someone made a simple 5cm plate to adapt a world class Stumpy S10 T5 to a A series bell as 1095-1300usd buys any ratios under the sun and these boxes are light, easy to rebuild and super common maybe most avail 5 speed of all time and can be unbolted easily leaving the bell on the engine. even have more compact jag kits for the rear ![Open in new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://www.eliteracingtransmissions.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/T5-EType.jpg");)

The eternal 5 speed gearbox problem raises its ugly head again.
My memory seems to vaguely recall an escort gearbox grafted onto an A series on a 120 y rally car for sale on ebay . Surely there must be simply way to do this
