Hi guys can anyone tell me if the R33 diff will fit in a BA falcon?? both being IRS diffs if not will the diff gears fit??

Do you not see the absurdity of your thread?

Just because two cars have IRS it doesn't mean the diffs are designed exactly the same. It's very likely that falcon diffs and r33 diffs are internally and externally different in many ways.

Guys, be fair

The R33 diff is a common conversion into BA falcons in drag racing and speedway circles. The trick is, that you need to use a front diff out of the GTS4 (NA). This will bolt straight in but you'll then have to convert the Falcon to 4 stud at the back. You'll also need to fit the Skyline steering rack and lock it out, but this has the benefit of giving you adjustable toe on the back of the Falcon. If you're half smart you can put a tee line into your power steering return lines, install a couple of electric solenoid actuated pilot valves and connect this to the unused terminals in the Falcon ECU to give you HICAS (you;ll need to call your local Pirtek dude to make up the hyd lines for you, as the Skyline and Falcon hydraulic fittings are different - Skylines use 1/4" BSPP and Falcon uses 3/8" NPT). Again, a little known fact that Ford played around with HICAS style rear steering, but gave it away as too costly on their budget spec taxis.

yep, hotrodders and modifiers do it all the time, but they generally pick on ford 9", chevy 10 bolts, or jaguar diffs etc etc

I even had landcruiser diffs front and back on my Hilux [supercharged 3.8 v6 holden conversion], so it can be done.......

      I've done a few BMS systems. Code in Canada use to force us to have any safety components outside of the PLC but with a code change back in 2018 I believe it was, we can now use safety PLC's to control everything. Sadly to your point, AB Guardlogix safety instructions for example are only available in ladder.  Machine safety is a very big thing here though, you're constantly forced to migrate to the next best thing by OSHA. I honestly prefer safety plc's, including anything from AB more then I do working with old school safety monitoring relays. PLC is only one portion of it, the rest of the electrical still has to follow to meet SIL (Mechanically linked dual contacts, bla bla)  Now tell me how to feel about safety over comm's (e.g Ethernet/IP CIP) on a unmaintained network haha

      To your point, boolean logic. We're not only working with bools in ecu's, so it's very limiting. I wanted to setup a low WMI pressure alarm. After 1 second I want WMI line to hit 100PSI, 2 seconds 175PSI, etc. and trigger an alarm if it doesn't meet those thresholds. This would of taken me one very short line of text, but instead I had to bugger around with generic timers, conditions, etc. and so forth.

      Low oil pressure after WOT

      By pogman · Posted

      I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
