Hi all,

I have 4 geabox synchros for sale. These were purchased new from black dragon auto. The gearbox shop said they didn't fit my gearbox though. Black dragon lists them to suit:

 

240z 260z 280z 280zx 1970-79 W/4-Speed Manual Transmission

and

280z 280zx 1977-83 W/5-Speed Manual Transmission

280zx Turbo 3/1981-12/81

 

NOT 280ZX Turbo 1/1982-83 W/5-Speed Manual Transmission

The gearbox shop fitted, or tried to fit them to my box which I thought was a 280zx box, so they have a bit of oil and stuff on them but they haven't been in a running gearbox. These are a bronze(?) synchro, the ones that I had were in the box were a sintered metal. That's all I can help you with in terms of what they will fit and I can not guarantee that black dragon's info will apply to our aussie boxes.

$100 delivered anywhere in australia.

Oh and $10 will be donated to the site if sold.

According to the catalogue, these synchros should fit every 5 speed box except for '280ZX Turbo 1/1982-83 W/5-Speed Manual Transmission'. Which technically we shouldn't have hear in Aus anyway. But that said, they didn't fit my box.

 

I guess the only way to be sure is to open the box up and have a look at the synchros you have.

 

This ad is for all 4 (4 required per box).

I'm currently moving house so my online presence isn't the best atm. I'll try to get back with an answer on this.

 

From memory, these didn't fit the box I had so the shop ended up using the best parts from 3 of my boxes. I'm 99% sure these didn't fit so I don't know how they could be used/worn if they could never fit in one of my boxes?

 

I had a quick look but I'm not 100% sure what I'm looking for. Is it rounding of the pentagonal teeth? They are look fine to me, the way the oil is sitting on it makes it look the the edges are rounded in the pictures, but the edges look sharp to me. Once I'm in my new house I'll take some close up's so someone else can tell me what's going on.
