Hi all, due to smashing a drive shaft at the drags I have put a full GTR rear end in my car which has made my Nismo 1 way diff surplus to my needs.

It was in my car for about 5 months. When we put it in it was inspected and found to be perfect. I have taken the back plate off and looked inside since it came off my car and internally it is still fine.

Basically what you get is the centre and off side half shaft. The drivers shaft is no good as you will see from the last pic. It's fine internally just the flange that bolts to the drive shaft is stuffed. I have been reliably told that any old drivers side half shaft will work, ie, reuse your own when installing it but that you absolutely must have the off side one. This is good for me cos I can still sell it. :sick:

I want $700 for it.

Adam, so if I wanted to install this in my car it would be fine? I believe my stock diff is faulty as when turning right hard sometimes the TCS light will come on and immediately cut out some power.

Hows this on the road, does it have any of the clunking noises etc. a 2-way diff would? My cars would be a daily driver so I'm after something quiet/not noticable. Oh and sorry for these two stupid questions but: what are the benefits of this one over the stock one and this is an LSD diff right? Not a locked one?

drive a car with a locker then drive a proper lsd, to totaly diff worlds. basicaly a proper lsd is what u need for a daily. a locker is jst to much and almost impossible to reverse park with lol. your diff doesnt sound like its shagged, probly jst traction control cuttin in, hence the light.

hey bob just like to point out that the reason that you need the driver side shaft is that if you used the passenger side the way the shaft twists eg the torque loading is the opposite way and it will snap the shaft nearly eveytime same for anyone swapping axles make sure they're going to turn the same way or they'll snap/shear

Ok, doesn't sound like a faulty diff Andi.

It wont fit an R32 but it will fit R33 or R34.

Matt, I'm not really sure what you are saying there. I think you are saying don't put the passenger side shaft in the drivers side?? but I'm not sure at all.

Ok I've just been told that the half shaft I need to replace the one I stuffed is from a single spinner. the Viscous LSD's that are in all the turbo Skylines don't fit.

Until I find one then, I am removing the diff from sale except to anyone who takes this information on baord and has one or wants to buy it anyway.

Thanks.

I would be willing to provide a limited warranty to the right person. Eg 6 months and up to 240rwkw or something like that.

I am the SAU NSW Club President so not likely to try to spiv anyone.

I think this will be plenty strong. I would only stipulate that you use high tensile bolts and nuts.

    • Ahh got it. Well maybe install a drain for the catch can somewhere down low and accessible like a wheel well too....
    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf  
    • yeah I get ~0.6L per session into the catch can. very ethanoly. It ends up overflowing out the breather of the catch can on circuit days too even with a 2.3L capacity catch can and I only drain out ~0.6L max. So every session I have to come in and drain the catch can, which is a hassle. So this is me cracking the shits and doing everything I can without removing the motor (back of head sump drain/breather and oil restrictors off the table). plans short term are: full length splash plates remove oem cam cover baffle add foam and reinstall at -10 or -12 AN fittings to the side of the cam covers down to the sump (luckily I already have fittings in the sump) Yes the ~340,000km unopened motor is probably not helping things
    • I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
