Pintaras were 4 cylinder (CA20E single cam from memory? Someone correct me if I'm wrong), Skylines were 6 cylinder (RB30E obviously). That was their big difference :laugh:

Kewl... ...Thanks for that... ...If that is the only difference then it isn't going to matter which one I get as I've got a different motor to go in...

And when it is debadged and cleaned up... ...I'm hoping there isn't any difference...

Lots of differences, but largely the above, plus the diff is different (smaller axles), trim levels are different, instruments are different...and so on.

Ahh... ...The diff and axles is good to know... ...If I go the Pintara route this might need to be swapped out for something stronger...

Trim and instruments are just cosmetic and most likely also going to be removed / replaced / turned into a new computer chair...

i remember reading that rb series motors do not fit in pinni's without major modding....

twas on here a couple of years back

Not what I was thinking but still good to know... ...Gives me an idea of how big I can go... ...or how much space I'll have left...

Maybe that was about a U12 Pintara??.... The R31 Pinni can be done easy enough i think

www.r31skylineclub.com

Search that for what ur looking for

Like Ash said... Start with a skyline, will be much cheaper for u in the long run rather than buying a pinni and putting skyline stuff in it.

    • But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...
    • I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.
    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
