rdg engineering have built a full spool for the r200 diff (less rolling weight ) im also sure someone else in oz also makes one as theo woollett had one in his car before the rdg one was finished

Theo smashed the mini spool...save your $$

put a KAAZ 2 way in it...Mark runs 8.0 with one.

or do what i do...run a stocker...hehe

my stocker is a late model R32 so its a R33 non v-spec diff...1mm larger 1/2 shafts than a R32 early model and 31 spline...the best one in my opinion.

A couple of you may be missing the point - it's not breaking differentials that i am concerned about - rather the fact of one wheel spinning less than the other and sending me across the strip - thats why i want a true locker of types - hence welding her up?

Axles are all being up graded so breakages should be to a minimum, just attempting to aleviate the possiblities of kissing the verticle crete.

a full spool was mentioned. alot safer than a cig centre.

I was under the impression that ANDRA requires a spool be used.

Are the r33 halfshafts 31 spline and the r32 29 spline. From what ive seen they all have 31 spline input shafts into the diff but just wanted to check that the r33 has larger 31 spline halfshaft.

To the best of my knowledge, ANDRA do not specify diff centre composition. That would just be ridiculous. Think of the types of vehicles you'd exclude.

RDG is giving me a proto type full spool that he has currently designed and he would like to see it put under major load.

.Will let you all know how we go.

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups.

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      By jez NF · Posted

      75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.

      Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet

      gauge needle removal

      By JC71 · Posted

      okay, so I figured this out, removed needles and reinstalled after swapping the gauge face on my triple gauge for my ER34, all work and look good. I tried to do the same for the main cluster, but the main cluster gauge faces are dished, the replacement gauge face are flat, so due to the dish in the org face ,mounting backing plate (clear) and depth of the needle, the flat gauge face will not work. I notice that R34 gtr gauges are flat, appears to be different clear backing plate that aren't dished. are these available, or what have others done to install flat gauge faces?

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Cheers mate. Seems some people get lucky others don't. It looks like the motor was detonating (to be expected if it was overboosting I suppose) as the pistons had a lot of detonation damage, and the bearings were stuffed. The bores were very scoured too, not sure if that's from the pistons or bits of ceramic turbo. By the by now. Have been trying to avoid the rabbit hole too much on the rebuild, and there's been a few hurdles along the way, but with any luck I'll have the car back soon™. Might even pop up a thread then.
