A Modified Bellhousing that is Cheaper AND Stronger than OEM – Only at Highline Car Care
If you’ve followed our blog, you might already know that Wes (Our Owner) picked up a 2010 GT-R project a while back. It had the “rattle” from the very beginning, which progressively got louder. It eventually got loud enough to sap the joy out of driving and a solution was to be devised! In typical Wes fashion, he did not rest until the matter was resolved. The bellhousing was removed from the car – The Nissan labor guide calls for removal of the entire engine to replace this item. However, we are able to remove it by supporting the engine and lowering the subframe. Much less invasive, and quicker!
Once the bellhousing was removed and disassembled, we devised a fix. Replacement bearings were ordered, and the bellhousing itself would need to be repaired so that the new bearings would not come loose.
The “Highline” Bellhousing is bored out and fitted with steel sleeves that have been retained by set screws
The Highline bellhousing uses precision milled steel sleeves and only high quality replacement bearings to ensure trouble free operation. Nothing is 100% bulletproof, but we have yet to see one of ours fail. That’s saying a lot,
considering Nissan hasn’t been able to solve the problem in 10+ years. Give us a call or shoot us a message today if you’d like to have your bellhousing replaced – The experts are standing by
