All the GTR boxes are 4wd, they will have a transfer case hanging off the back of them.
The box you want is the GTS-T box from the R33, or the GT-T box from an R34.

Pretty sure Tim, I've got the 34 box, which is pull type. Can't vouch fo the 33 box, but fom what I know they are to opposite - push type.

I originally went for a os giken triple plate because I got one for a steal, installed the thing with the converter & then pulled it out and sold it and went for an npc cusioned brass button pull type.
Most of my decision to change was information I got that the push pull convertors had trouble keeping up with fast gear changes & would cause unnecessary wear & the guy I brought it off brought it for a 6 speed & didnt tell me & had to f around with the carrier to get it to fit.
Push pull convertor swimming in grease.
My r34 box.

14-01-10, 13:00 GMT+10#279 it should have a u-bracket on the end of the pushrod which you can use to adjust it. i think usually theres some sort of bolt that goes thru it and the pedal, and a circlip holds it in on the other side. Don't see any prob with using a nut and bolt, just as long as it doesn't have too much play (ie so that the bolt is only a wee bit smaller in diameter than the actual hole).

14-01-10, 14:49 GMT+10#280 yer thought so mate, but im pritty sure your right with having something go thoguth it with a circlip as iv put a bolt on it and its made the clutch pedal real tight.
So ill have to look for something like the brake pedal has with that circlip in it yer?
