hey guys

i have a 1996 R33 series 2 GTS (non turbo) & when i go out for a slide (drift) it tends to easily lock up both wheels turning right, but left nearly always singles..

is this because it is a LSD that has worn pratically too a OPEN wheeler?

i also know these came optional LSD from factory.. how would you pick it from looking under the car at the outside of the diff?

bolt pattern too the driveshafts, eg. 5 bolts or 3x2 bolts?

if it is a OPEN wheel diff, i have noticed people throw GTS-T diffs in, with the driveshafts..

what else is needed besides the Diff & Driveshafts?

if these could be answer, it would be greatly appreciated guys !!!

cheers

ive been thinking of putting a lsd in my r33 series 2 gts but i thought maybe not cause in wet not traction control and an lsd would be a bad mix also dont have the money atm but i am very interested in this too so if anyone could help Thanks in advance.

Also not trying to steal your thread rmsjdm but im here for the ride :P

jack car off ground, turn wheel on one side, if the other wheel turns in the same direction then you have an LSD, if its badly worn I guess it might not

GTS-t half shafts are 5 bolt and are thicker then GTS ones. My CV's wouldnt fit on a half shaft i grabbed out of a NA R33 when I needed to get mine going.

So, if i was to put GTS-T half shafts in, so i could run the LSD diff.. the halfshaft ends wouldnt fit into my GTS CV joints?

Great question. did you ever find the answer?

Im doing the lsd conversion atm. only thing im unaware of is will the 5 bolt shafts fit in my na wheel hub. due to it being 4stud. maybe its smaller? i will find out for sure next week.

    • Get something that can spray a bit, something like I'd use is a pressure pack for weed sprayer. I use one with degreaser. Spray it on (make sure you're fully covered up, you don't want that shit on you, especially face/eyes). Alternatively, a paint brush will help here as you can brush and work at the stuff quite aggressively.   Be aware, citric acid can eat metal away and will cause it to rust more later. So make sure you neutralise it when done, and give the fresh metal some protection. That hanger, I'd honestly bin and get something like the Frenchy's drop in replacement. The tank, again, I'd look for something else to replace it with. Remember, as metal turns to rust, it means there's less metal there now. So some patches of your fuel tank are likely to be quite thin.   Personally, Id focus on the front end of things, IE, how did the injectors get clogged if they're meant to be after a fuel filter. Then, once the front is sorted, I'd rig something up, even like a small surge tank, and make sure the engine is now running and all behaving. Then I'd replace the fuel tank and fuel hanger and pump. Also, I'd already be preparing to ditch your fuel filter...  
    • That's looking great! Are you planning to do things like all hidden wiring with it, or you're planning to have it look more like we'd expect an RB in an engine bay to look like?
    • Haha thanks everyone, I'll take everyone's suggestions into consideration. If I do eventually choose a car ill post it here update on the mods I do.
    • I found the ingredients at larger amounts from a Coffee Shop. 1kg Citric Acid for €8.50 500g Baking Soda for €2.50 I tried it out tonight distilled water (I got from my ACs) and dish soap. It does get bubbly with dish soap. In just two hours the hanger has improved significantly and rubbing against any remaining rust seems to flake it off. I'm going to leave it a little bit longer and see how it goes. I have read that someone even used this solution in an ultrasonic cleaner to clean a seized water pump which brought it back to life.
    • If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly
