I take it the helical diff in the R34GTT manual is an improvement over the R33 gtst viscous LSD.

Were these in all the manual R34gtt's or only after a certain year model?

Has anyone had problems with these/comments?

Does it prevent the inner wheel spinning that occurs with tired VLSDs?

All I can say, having recently bought one from a manual (it was 4.11 ratio) that was viscous....they're not helical. That's if any were helical at all. The R34 sales brochure says the manuals are helical and the autos are viscous, but that may well have only been after a certain date. I certainly have never seen a helical yet, and I've been looking.

yeah they are vicous. 34 GTRs are not helical. they are a clutch pack mechanical type LSD. or if v-spec they have an active LSD which is similar but governs the amount of slip using hydraulic pressure in the diff (with an electric pump).

best bet is just buy one of the many available mech LSD options out there. there are plenty in the $1000-$1500 range and even cheaper to buy second hand. or use a 32 GTR diff and buy a set of nismo clutch disks for it. should be less than $800 all up and it's as good as a brand new mech LSD.

      I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real

      Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.

      No clips on this one like the other connector. Only that red tab that I can push slightly up.

      For any loom connector that has an obvious release that resists pushing far enough to unclip, just spray some silicone lube into it. You might also benefit from using a bent screwdriver or small pick to push in the right place at the right angle.

      R34 GT Indicator not Cancelling

      Hey all, I went to try and fix my indicator not canceling, but I couldn't remove the clockspring cable under the column so I could twist that green thin. Anyone know how to remove this cable? I see this red tab but didn't have any luck. I was thinking of unscrewing it but wasn't sure if it would cause issues. I did notice for my indicator stalk, 2 out of 3 cables were plugged in but the last cable wouldn't fit in the stalk. I'm getting it's for fog lights. It was like this when I originally pulled it off.
