hey guys i`v done a search but can`t find what i`m looking for?

i got a r33 gtst, i belive it fitted with a factory viscous lsd?

i would like to fit a factory mechanical lsd! (not aftermarket 1.5-2 way)

What it the diff that i need,(what car do i get it from)?

Will i need drive shaft too or still use mine?

should i be looking for a R200 diff?

Also any help on gear ratio`s would be great too

Thanks

factory diffs run a viscous lsd centre.

Fitting a mechanical centre only replaces the centre. The ratio is determined by the crown wheel and pinion of the diff. These are fitted / part of the existing diff, so once u install the new mechanical centre the ratio will be the same as it was before.

the only factory mechanical i think there is, is the r34 gtr? But i dont think you can simply drop these in. Someone with more knowledge will know.

99% of the time ppl with r33s willl drop in an aftermarket one (Nismo, Kaaz etc)

Drive shaft is still the same, as the diff housing is the std one u use (just the centre needs replacing)

r200 short nose is the diff type you have.

stick with the factory ratio you have 4.11

R200 i think (from vague memory) refers to the size of the crown wheel (ie 200mm - r200)

nope fer the gtr diff. The hubs are different that bolt to the axles.

Your best option for a mech diff is just looking at geting the nismo, or kaaz centre. There is a reason everyone uses them :thanks:

How do I tell the difference between a R32 R180 and R200 LSD ???

I need one to replace my damged diff in my cefiro A31. It already had and R32 rear end though. The car was purchased with this and other upgrades.

I was told that the R33 and 300zx Twin Turbo R230 LSD cannot work.

Anyone with any advice ????
