Hi guys, I have serious trouble getting up driveways and it's been confirmed now that only one week is spinning :P

what are my options, do I get this one rebuilt, second hand R34GTT, I also heard an S15 diff is the same, what about a R34 GTR rear diff?

how much better is a 1.5 turn, and is it a worthy upgrade, i don't do any drifting or anything like that?

thanks for your help

cheers

I wouldn't say it's, farked, torsen diffs (in S15/R34 GT-t) do that when there's one wheel in the air.

yup my car does it as well. I believe its normal for a stock r34 gt-t diff. Mine still spins up two wheels with both wheels on the road. if it doesnt spin both wheels when they are both on the road then your lsd is fcked.

i think its just an issue with the limited suspension travel.

I can also confirm the driveway thing. It's a catch 22. You set your shocks to soft and then you drag your body kit.

On the topic of interchanging centers, I have a cusco 2 way for an S13 R200. Is it true this will fit my R34 housing?

ewww weldies!

once you go torsen or mechanical, you won't like weldies anymore... !

and yes like I said before, you're diff isn't stuffed, it's a marvellous diff, heaps better than the junk in R33 R32 GTS-ts

Put it on the track and you'll know what I mean when you hop into a R33 with a VLSD

Same thing happens to my R34 GT-V it has a GTR front bar and the lip is really low with the HSD coilovers everytime i try go sideways to avoid scratching it, it will get stuck in the air, so my diff's not stuffed? just soften the coilovers or?

    • Pretty simple question. I was about to put the transmission back in and thought I pretty much had it lined up when I noticed it seems like the pressure plate isn't flat. I was pretty careful when undoing the bolts both during initial disassembly for cleaning and when torquing them up for installation so this is pretty discouraging. I'm not sure if I accidentally bumped the pressure plate with the input shaft and bent it somehow or if it just showed up this way. Is it possible that there's just something obvious I'm not doing correctly? I'm pretty sure I was extremely careful to make sure the friction discs were seated correctly in the hub, everything lined up, flywheel torqued according to sequence, the little springs all sitting correctly in their seats, etc.  What's the play here? Do I jump straight to a new pressure plate?
    • OK. I can see that being the case. But if you live in the land of "only switching between 4.08, 4.11, 4.36" like most Skyliners, then you never encounter it. Now I perhaps understand why the crownwheel is thicker on some of the smaller numerical ratio diffs. The two stubs being the same (unequal) lengths and just swapped side to side between the different cases is a new one to me. I'm hating Nissan R200s more than ever now.
    • Reason I say this is I have seen broken ones, in drift, drag and even behind a stock Z. I do appreciate most of the time its the synchro's that go.   Trouble with quoting HP is it doesn't really say how strong the box is.  I've not seen many CD00X box's make it past a mid 9(150mph) I have seen about a stock R33 RB25 box's run a 9 too, they all go boom at some point though.   Another clue is they make gearsets for CD00X box's too, wouldn't be a market if they didn't break or have a limit people are going past.   I totally agree it is a strong box, just have to weigh up the true total cost of the conversion vs rebuilding with a good gearset. 
    • What makes you say CD009 boxes are not as strong as you would think? I've always been told the last revision (CD00A) is good for 1000whp and I have no issue's believing it when comparing one side by side with an RB25 box. Makes them look tiny. 
    • I picked up an open Center with shafts. I was told the Open shafts will fit a mechanical LSD and looking at them. I think they will work. Will update
