the number refers to the size of the crown wheel (R200 crownwheel is 200mm in diameter) Its like when you hear people talk about 9" diff in their ford/holden etc. So from the outside the R180 housing looks smaller.

thanx.if i want to put on a lsd on my a31 rb20e auto,which lsd can easily bolt on only?can i use a abs type without changing the long shaft?

I think the ABS diff has a longer housing to fit the ABS sensor? Not sure though.

From what I see everyone uses R200 LSD. Make sure you get one with halfshafts to suit your driveshafts, skylines use 5*1 bolt pattern as opposed to S13/A31 using 3*2 bolts.

I have two diffs, both from cefiro's - both R200's one is a Viscous LSD with the Sensor plug, the other is a cusco 2 way LSD.

If you want an LSD you just change the whole diff, OR rip it out, strip it down and bolt the LSD centre to the crown wheel and reassemble. Be careful with torque settings on reassembly - you're best off getting a professional to rebuild it for you.

      Shifting questions

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone

      Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.

      I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.

      I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?

      I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
