You could try Euroautosalvage to start with.

Failing that, I doubt you will get a replacement before D1 :( Ordering from perfectrun.com.au or japanparts.com will be the most cost effective and probably quicker than Nissan GB. It will still take around 2-3 weeks though....

You might be able to pick one up through nissansilvia.com or nissansilvia.co.nz.

i know that there are 3 s15 6 speed gearboxes for sale on nissansilvia.co.nz at the moment from a mate of mine, his username is snofe.

about 1300NZD for them i think, but youd obviously have shipping to add to that

Bung on an S14 one in the mean time, then source a S15 one when you can. I would imagine one from Nissan will take a lot longer than 4 weeks. :nod:

given many believe the S14 5spd is a superior strength box - it could be an opportune time to fit one. (if you don't mind the taller ratios)

don't know about s14 box. 6sp in s15 is bad enough, especially in 60km zones where I feel caught between 4th and 5th gear, but its a sports car so I shouldn't be so :ghey:

The 15's shorter gearing is a pure joy compared to the 14's. Much more drivable.
I agree but better to be mobile on a 14 box than your car be sat for 12 weeks while Nissan sort a replacement. Allthough I guess it depends if you can do the job yourself as you may not want to pay out twice. :nod:

On another note how the hell de your mechanic manage to break your box in the first place
