🔧 Honda Type R K-Series Gearbox Build for a Toyota MR2 🇯🇵
This Type R K-Series gearbox came to me as part of a Toyota MR2 project.
⚙️ The gearbox was completely rebuilt mechanically, and this time the complete unit also received a full visual refresh to bring everything back to a very high standard.
✨ The gearbox casing received a full AquaBlast treatment, while the bolts and other metal hardware were restored and refinished in a gold zinc-style finish.
🔍 Inside the gearbox, quite a lot was replaced. Some components showed only light wear, while others had more noticeable wear, so everything that was no longer in good condition was replaced.
🏁 The gearbox received a complete set of Synchrotech carbon synchros, sleeves and hubs, together with a SpeedFactory shift spring kit. The remaining replacement parts were genuine OEM Honda components.
🔩 The complete 4th gear set was also replaced. These parts have already been discontinued and unavailable from many sources for quite some time. Fortunately, at RRA GearMaster I still have several sets available on the shelf.
✅ After assembly, the gearbox was fully checked and tested before being released.
