Beer Baron Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 finned cover is vspec diff man i get tired of people misquoting info on 32 GTR diffs! I must hear it about once a month. as my man dave has pointed out ALL pre-model update BNR32 GTRs have a finned diff cover. later models have the plain cover.

GTsauRus Posted September 5, 2006 Author Share Posted September 5, 2006 swap to the finned cover. it holds more oil. thanx again this is all good news Ive scored a late model diff and i can put the best bits on it [finned cover] and sell the leftover drive shafts and stuff, my lsd centre will be okay for some one too if they have a quiet set of gears.
