Dr30 R200


Recommended Posts

Got offered a DR 30 R200 LSD today, $1200. So can someone tell me the specs of this item?

Are they a longnose or short nose? Are they IRS like my R180? What ratio could I expect? and would it be a hassle changing over as I'm really wanting to just plain swap it over?

$1200 is a bit on the nose.

They usually sell for around $400 here in Sydney.

Dr30 diffs are usually a 3.9 ratio too.

Dunno if they are short or long nose, but I swapped a 30 diff into my 31 coupe. Bolt in.

$400 for an R200 LSD longnose from a DR30 is a bargain mate, and I'm pretty sure the 31 IRS is the shortnose anyway. From memory the longnose R200 into your car passingewe should be a straight bolt in including axles.

The R200's in the DR30/31 are all long nose specials only difference between the two diffs is the half shafts being thicker on the 31. If you can get R200 LONG NOSE diffs for $400 clams snap em up cause they'll only sell for more!! R200 SHORT NOSE sell for bugger all because they're common as!

Can put my hands on 2 3.9 ratios, and a 4.1 ratio tomorrow.$400 each

R200s aren't that special.

Well, not $1200 special anyway.

Guys I'm really wanting a yes or no answer as I have to let this person know soon I was hoping someone with a Dr30 would know if they were same dimensions as the R180 longnose.

Can anyone say yay or nay?

They are way bigger then an r180.

You will need the r200 shafts and moustache bar.

Then depends on the flange for the tailshaft too.

If you shop around you may find a bargain.

I got one for $290. With the bigger crown wheel bolts too.

All 3 are R200 mechanical lsd's. Prolly a little loose, take em to a good diff specialist and get em tightened up.

R200s are great diffs.

What I meant was there is no shortage of them.

Lots O cars had em.

280/300zx's, HR31's, DR30's

The zed ones come with a really cool alloy finned backplate.

just got to do a little searching at the wreckers.
