hi everyone, im looking for some info on taller ratio gtr diff gearing.

ive heard r34 gtr can be used, is there anything else out there?

im sure i read a while ago the sss r32 gtr was using aftermarket gears.

It depends how tall you are wanting to go and why??

The R34 GTR has a 3.55:1.

I have a set of 3.9**:1's here but I dont know what they are out of.

im probably looking at around the mid 3's, so r34 gears would be good. i want taller gears to drop the rpm of freeway travel, and try and get better economy :laugh:

not overly bothered by the fact itll have slower pick up, hopefully some mods will fix that :thumbsup:

so, anyone have r34 gtr front and rear gears for sale???

honestly if you want better economy by a different car. GTRs are performance cars. they will always be hungry and should be. putting 3.5s in there will just dull the performance and give you an astronomical theoretical top speed of 350+ that you will never get too. most people go the other way and do 4.4:1 for even better acceleration and sacrifice top speed down to about 260-270 or so which is plenty. :P

dont know, but 4.11's are 3100 at 110km, so im guessing around 3300-3500ish????

eng rpm x gear ratio x diff ratio x rolling diameter isnt it?

I realy doubt that... a stock geared GTR is 2600rpm for 100km, doubt it takes another 500rpm to get the extra 10ks... not brave enough to try now though as had a few... lol

Me thinks yours isnt exactly stock in that department...

What revs would 4.4:1 give you at 100Ks in a 32 GTR? Interested in doing the swap for those tighter tracks...

can't remember exactly, but it does buzz along a bit. lol. I am about to finish the new set-up which is OSG close ratio box, with the 4.4:1 diff gears, built N1 Nur motor, and tiny HKS GT-SS turbos. it should be pretty radical on corner exit now! and will have less top speed, but now have a chance of actually getting there.

i doubt mine is modified(apart from 235/45r17's), sits at around 3000@100km, then around 3200@110km

ill have to see if i can get someone to record it with my phone.

I agree with Beer Baron.

I've tried multiple diff ratio's in the RWD with up over 300rwkw and even 3.9's kill the feel of the car. It transforms the car from a fast reving FUN sports car in to a dull and LAGGY car.

The longer ratio's make the car feel so so much laggier its not funny. Mods won't make up for the lack of FUN factor but it will push the speeds where the car may feel like its starting to really move to higher road speed. Not so good for those demerit points.

What really sucked about the longer ratio IMO was corner exit. It felt as if the car went from having a gear for every corner to having gears that were either too high or too low, that is unless I was willing to do stupid speeds on the street which is just silly.

The R34 GTR 6speed. Does that drop the highway RPM at 100km/h in top gear? Maybe a gearbox + diff swap is the answer?

Or... Another car.. The tuned LS1 auto purs along at a little over 1500rpm at 100km/h with 7.5-8.5l/100 on the calibrated trip computer. :P

can anyone answer me if the R32 gtr diff is a 1.5 way or 1 way

and will it bolt straight into a r32 gtst??

pretty sure gtr/gtst diff internals are different. outside may be the same though...

standard diffs are generally classed as 1 way.

hope this helps.

I remember getting around 3K (looked like 2950RPM or similar) in 5th gear @ 110km/h on 235/45/17, R33 :)

Speedo is slightly off by maybe 4km/h at this speed...

From here. (have to give credit)

Use this.

And this.

From memory I thought I was knocking on 3100 @ 110. This is with a 26 and gtr box, with 4.375:1 gears (standard gts4 crown and pinion). Doesn't sound or feel nasty, just like driving a smaller 4 cyl car.

Can't take my car for a drive as it has almost all the front end out atm, new brakes and front driveshafts getting reconditioned.

Such a noobie question but where can I get 4.4:1 diff gears from?? As in purchase.

I get 3K @ 110km/h on the sat nav, 2900 @ 100km/h on 235/45/17 R32 GTR VSpec II.

Not sure if I have stock internals in GB or Diff though

      The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.

      When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.

      Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.

      This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.

      Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
