Hi ,

Just had my 32 gtr on a hoist and noticed there is some tell tale oil spots where the shaft goes into the front diff.

few questions...

1 . anyone on here changed that seal before?

2 . anyone have advice on a part number for that seal?

3 . how hard was it to do?

Thanks in advance

CHEERS

good question...I haven't done it but am giving it a go on the weekend. mine has been damaged with the motor coming in and out so many times lol

Part number is 38342-03v10 for 32 gtr

OH SWEET!

thanks for the reply mate

can you give me a lil advice when your done :)

Regards

Jason

if u talkin about the driftshaft / axle seals there not that hard, you might have to remove the whole hub assembly but dependin on how good you are some people can remove the drive shafts without the hub out lol.

mate just drop the bottom ball joint and there is just enough room for you to remove the drive shaft complete. Get a seal remover tool or lever bar to remove the old seal. Try not to damage any of the alloy housing. Knock the new seal in with a large socket evenly. Bit of rubber grease on the drive shaft or inner lip of the seal doesn't harm. Lube is goood !

Enjoy

Thanks for the help chaps

very much appreciated

this is my 3rd week owning a gtr and its going well i hope to meet some locals soon and have a chat.

p.s any one here in the coorparoo area with a grey bnr32 that was driving with me for awhile last week sometime?

mine was changed on the weekend, exactly how MAD 32 GTR described it.

BTW there was a mistake in my post above. the part number for 32 gtr and gts4 is 38342-03v01

cheers mate i got the part was only 22$

looks like its made of plastic?

any one know of a dagram or an exploded veiw?

thanks :down:

sorry, I mean the seal where the drivers side drive shaft goes into the diff, the part you have highlighted is where the intermediate drive shaft from the transfer case goes into the gear box. If you have FAST (looks like you do), click on the part to select it then return to the main page/parts list. press F7 and you will get the full part number

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
