The standard gtr diff is a 2 way? Im confused :down:

yes it is. but it doesn't have as many clutch plates as a common aftermarket 2 way. so it's much more liveable on daily driving, doesn't clunk etc and needs more torque generally before it locks.

you can convert a starndard 32 GTR diff to what is effectively a nismo 2 way for about $200 with a kit from nismo.

But you cannot get a TT for a GT-R.

Are you sure about that Richard? I got quoted one by Greenline.. But I choked and got the Pro because I wasn't sure if the TT was going to be man enough.. I'm pretty sure they are available for the GT-R, and in hindsight, probably what I should have got for a more streetable diff that still hangs on..

The pro has adjustable preload. It's as streetable as you want it to be. Mines the model below that so permanently uber tight. great on the track, and exactly as beer baron described on the street.

Turns out they do now offer one. Sorry for my old info. I couldn't find one last year when I looked.

i have a nismo 2 way in the silvia. you are welcome to test it out chubbs. it's a farkin pig of a thing around the streets. it clunks like buggery and sounds like your whole car is about to fall apart! or alternatively it will chirp tyres. BUT on the track it's awesome. very predictable which is exactly what you want. :)

hahahha i have a nismo 2 way aswell, noisy, clucky, everyone looks at my car like its about to fall apart but i LOVE it and id never replace it with anything else in the world

:P:D:D:D:D:wub::wub:

Richard, yeah would love to have a drive :D

I drove a work mates sprinter with a two way around my area, and yeah, I totally now know what you guys mean about the car about to fall apart!!!

But if its great on the track - I dont care bout the street ;)

^^^ lol evil bish...

You have already driven a shimmed 32GTR (nismo kit) 2 way, the zed has one... Although once we changed the oil (drag day) it got clunkier and less street friendly then the old oil which was lets say.... extremely overdue!!!

I new to learning about Diffs. I have a R32 GTS-T. I do daily driving, dont race but do like to go fast on the highway and take tight corners on the street. Do I need a upgraded Diff or is the stock one fine? I rode in a R32 GTS-T that had a 2way Diff and it was loud and clunky. I don't want this, is there a way to get a upgraded Diff and not have this annoying sound and clunkiness. Girlfriend wouldn't like it either. Laugh

Well the best advice you will get is to stop driving like an idiot on the road and take your car to a track.

Apparently when a car gets impounded it doesn't really matter what type of diff it has.

Typically girlfriends don't much like having to walk everywhere either.

im inthe same boat as 335 have only just purchased my first skyline (r32) and im loving it, but now im looking at taking it to the tracks for drift days and all that! I know that i need one but what sort is the question, i still drive the car on the streets and the majority of my driving is done in the car so something thats not to bad but will give me the control i need<br /><br />cheers josh

The fundamental problem is that what works well on the track is usually far too harsh for the road & what is nice to drive on the road is inadequate for the tracks.

Having said that check the Nismo GT Pro LSD TT range (or whatever the most recent stuff is called) as they are the nearest I have found to a reasonable compromise.

I'm running the Cusco RS 2 way in my car now... and let me say that it has done more for rear end grip than any other mod so far... that includes shocks, pinapples, camber adjustment and good tires...

it will try and turn the inside wheel whilst parking and doing tight turns on the street and will clunk a little when cold, but none of the harsh banging that I have experienced with some of the more agro diffs... once you adjust your driving style to suit ie stay off the throttle and 'coast' when you have lots of steering lock on its fine...

it is the more street friendly of the Cusco range as it uses springs to lessen the shock... the MZ is the agro one

At DECA (motokhana) I have also had to change driving style... where once I could do a handbrake turn whilst staying in 2nd (it would light up the unloaded tire which would bring the revs up and I could power away) now it just grips and bogs and I need to use 1st gear... once it is out sideways tho it feels much more controllable, and most importantly much quicker

the whole 2 way thing hasn't been an issue yet but I haven't been onto a proper track... it will lock the rears if you downshift too harshly but that kinda helps turn in lol

Are these the right numbers and what the difference...8kg/12kg???

3843S-RS520 - 8kgf spec

3843S-RS521- 12kgf spec

yeah I think I posted it earlier in the thread maybe? Spewing, I've had one on my desk for months, but I just posted it off to another user here last week!

lol, the ol sneaky edit while I was posting trick! not sure if they are right but they should be if you found it in one of my other posts. the difference i believe is the preload.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
