I am putting a RB26 into my R32 gts-t and i am using a RB25 series 1 gearbox. I was searching on the forum but there is nothing about modifying hte drive shaft. I don't know what do i have to do the drive shaft? The guy who is modifying the drive shaft needs to know the measurements of it. any advice would be great. thanks

Mate I have heard of people getting tail sharfts made up and they

normally like to see the car in person and measure it up.They need

to measure the car at std ride height and the suspension travel to

make sure it has enough length and won't restrick movement.Hope

this is of some help

the tailshaft is a fixed length in a skyline, as it has IRS it doesnt move with susp travel.

some people have needed custom front sections (me) while others didnt need to modify at all (Cubes)

  • 2 weeks later...

so all i need is the R33 gts-t yoke and get it custom welded to the R32 shaft. doesnt anyone know the length of the driveshaft? i need to give the measurement to the guy who makes the shaft, however, my car is not drivable and he lives very far from me.

lol

mine would NOT fit, had to shorten shaft.

Cubes DID fit, no shaft mods needed

diff ppl get diff results...not sure why. could have to do with crosmenbers used?? Either way measure it up for try the 33 shaft first before working out if you need a modded one or not

if in doubt measure from back of box with the meatl shroud removed to the rear shaft mounting face. This is all they need, they did the one for our rb26 with RB25 box into s13 with only this measurement.

When we had my engine out on the weekend I compared my stock 32 gtst tailshaft with that of a 32 gtst running a 26 with a 25 box that was in the workshop.. they were practically the same length (minus a couple of mm probably due to the cutting off of the old yoke).

    • It just occurred to me. The way I am asking for increasing bite as I slow down (ie more bite the more time on the brakes), that is actually sounding like less initial bite, and hence the bite would feel to increase.

    • Actually I need to book the V37 for a test day, who is running it? And yeah just let me know if you are down night before or after and we can kill some beers That is my super power
    • Sorry, I must've not been clear enough. On my 350GT, the pads originally on the car created dust to high heaven, and did not squeal at any time. I got new low dust pads, that created absolutely NO visible dust, that squealed when cold.  It wasn't  the initial bite, so much as an increase in braking, without extra brake pedal pressure, during a single brake instance. I had to lift off a little as my speed decreased to zero. Loved it! Now on my 370GT, I have to press a little harder as I approach zero. Not hard, just harder. I am too lazy and live in a city block with no room or tools to do it myself, so I would be paying someone to do the switch I looked at the three offerings by Intima, and one of them had a Features line that caught my eye. "Strong initial bite with continual rising coefficient". The problem is that this is on their "Trackday, Time Attack, Sprint" pads, not their day-to-day pads. Its possible that JAX installed track day pads on my 350GT, I just don't know. But I was pretty clear I did not track the car and drove the streets pretty gently. https://intimabrakes.com.au/home-corporate/intima-rr/ I'll send them an email and also check if other pads purport that behaviour.
