Trying to ID a gearbox.

Postby dazza67 » Sun May 02, 2010 11:13 am

Giday all, first post and already asking for help..
I have a gearbox that I am selling on ebay, it was part of a 'job lot' and I was told it is a 5 speed out of a MX5. It is big, so I popped the top of, and I recon it is a 6 speed. I have searched around the forum and i have found a picture of a NB 6 speed on one of the threads

alas this is different to mine.
I have run the tag number thru google and I have found a Russian site the IDs the box, with images, so this all lines up, the only issue is, I don't read Russian, and as such I am at a loss.
Here are some pics I would be quite great full if it can be ID'ed Cheers Darren

Thanks Regie
It indeed looks to be a NC 6 speed, didn't even think of the tranlator sights

FWIW, MX5 used a 6 speed Aisin AZ6 GB

Couple of pics of MazdaSpeed/ SE GB, which apart from sticker are apparently outwardly identical to NB8B & NB8C 6 speed GB

Quoted from Boyracer's last post on page two of the following thread:
