hey, i know this is a long shot but i need the KAAZ part number for the 1.5 way that will fit my aussie r31 gts2, all people i talk to "think" its the same as a r32 gts-t, but im sure they have a different diff

thanks for your help :D

What you need to do is visit your local falcadore performance shop, as you're after a Borg Warner LSD.

:(

If you want to keep a rear end under an R31 with a serious motor you will need to talk to a diff specialist.

A good and not too obvious upgrade is a narrowed Borg Warner with LSD from a Valiant with mounts to suit the R31.

Gear ratios are going to be a challenge as the selection is pretty thin.

Not quite as strong but still reasonable is the rear end from a V8 Commode. Again, ratios are a pain.

a mate in the r31 forum with a modded gts1 has a Kaaz LSD, it has lasted 6 months and is now a single spinner??? 1200-1500 for one of these or another bloke just on the weekend was talking, for $1900 you can get a detroit (spelling) locker to suit the r31 rear???

There is nothing wrong with the R31 rear end, only the LSD's wear, but that is standard for any cone style LSD borg warner diff.

All aussie R31 Skylines use the exact same center as a VL turbo being 28 (I think) spline and 4 pinion center.

So a VL turbo Kaaz (if they exist) center will fit an R31.

Non Turbo VL uses 25 spline I think and 2 pinion center.

In mine I am using the R31 diff but with V8 falcon LSD gear in it, I dont know what the difference is but the diff guy recons they are better....I just think it was easier to get!

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
