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!

    • For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...
    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
    • Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.
