Who Here Can Help Me Install A Mechanical Lsd Into My Stock R33 R200 Housing?


Recommended Posts

As per thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/In...Ls-t299495.html

I bought a LSD but do not really want to fork out $690 to install it by a professional. I thought about attempting it myself but people have warned me if the whiplash is wrong, watch it eat itself to death.

SO I am being precautious here :(

Anyone that lives near Fairfield want to help? I have tools and air compressor but no breaker bar nor impact wrench, alternatively, I can drive the car to your home workshop and we can knock it back there!

I will pay you for your time and help you take out the diff, ra ra ra :(

Cheers,

Johnny

i think you mean backlash?

I've learnt two things in the last few years. unless you can do the job 100% right your self, pay some one to do it.

for two reason. your dont get dirty and if it f**ks up they fix it(assuming they f**ked it).

cheers

yea i agree with runnin4life, things never ever go to plan with these things, best pay someone else to deal with the problems :ninja: - good luck with whatever you decide to do though :)

I got quoted $550 from a well known place that's with my diff dropped out and brought to them

where do you guys recommend? in Syd?

So are they pulling the diff out and putting it back in for that price? You would want to think so.

My just had his centres swapped over cost him $150, I think the place is called D&R in Chipping Norton. Might be wrong on the name.

For that price, I have to take the diff to them.. all they're doing is swapping the centres over, and supplying new seals and 'maybe' bearings for $550. They won't even fill the oil up, I have to do it on my own.

I'll search on the yellow pages for that lot and see how I go.

Cheers!

Got quoted by another place

$250 to install centre, re-use old bearings (I bring diff to them)

+$50 for new seals

+$40 to be filled with oil

give the guys at award diff and gear box a call, I cant remember how much he charged me but pretty sure it wasnt that much.http://www.hotfrog.com.au/Companies/Award-Diff-Gearbox-Services

if u can bring it to wollongong i can do the swap for $130 cash, as i have done a few inculding shiming my diff

if all that needs to be done is swap the centres

    • Thanks mate 👍 The car was brought into the UK by a USAF mechanic until he was stationed back to the US, one owner later I bought her back in 2009. Luckily the only corrosion was on the sill seams, so once taken back to metal and treated and sealed all ok, I then undersealed the car myself and check yearly and treat any corrosion which to be honest is zero. She's garaged most of the time and hardly ever driven in the rain, but as you say most are rotten unfortunately, I was lucky in finding her as she was and still is in excellent condition.  
    • Stunning car.  Looks amazing!  You're in the UK?  How the hell do you stop your car rotting away beneath you?  British cars are the WORST I've ever seen in regards to rust.  Some of the cars SR Autobody have done are borderbeyond saving.
    • not a date code? or a foundry code? 
    • I have up to date pics of the engine build and turbo conversion over on my instagram @skpro_jects if you want to take a deeper look.   Basically the exhaust manifold is straight bolt on and the ports match (they arent any smaller than a 25 or 26 head).    the intake ports are different shape so the 20/25det manifold will bolt up but wont match properly or seal. You will need to port match using the 25det gasket as a stencil. Personally i ran the entire stock 20neo intake setup and have configured the swirl valves and torque valve to work based on my custom parameters to help with off boost response and spool. But this is using a standalone aem v2 ecu. The stock 20det ecu wont be able to control them.     
    • Hi. a little later but if the topic is here. So...the exhaust is the same and you can use 25/Turbo or any aftermarket? What about intake side? Is it too "plug n play" or? (i do not remember for 100% but i think that one intake to head gasket was little bit different than on the RB25 - i bought gasket kit way back) I know that even if it "plug" those butterfly swirls would cause ECU to be confused or?   Just asking for the info 🙂 and of course the RB25 things are easier to come by
