Hi I recently had a run in with gutter.....damn things anyways the rear right side wheel basicly got pushed under the car the lower control arm when it crumpled damaged the subframe and now im looking at basicly replacing the whole assembly..Now heres the problem i have a mate with a whole gtr assembly now i know alot of the parts are different the drive shaft yoke bolt pattern, shocks, the axle pattern also the diff ratios i've heard are different to my car, mines a manual btw....anyways basicly i wanna if i can swap and use my original hubs and original diff...but somehow use the gtr axles? my oringinal one i susupect is bent hence why i wanna use the gtr ones...has anyone heard of such a conversion being done or have any idea what would need to be done would the drive shaft lenght be fine with the gtr subframe? also would the wheel base be changed at all im just wondering because the gtrs have flared guards. Anyways sorry the post is getting long and thanx too everyone who can offer advice

yeas it can be done. i did it to my 32gtst, if you are interested ive got a complete GTR rear cradle here for sale. it has thicker axels etc, all you need to have is longer hangers from the body which is easier to do. if you are interested email me

cheers matt

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
