Just recently every time i turn my 32gtr 1989 model AWD starts to lock up the diff and is very hard to make it move where i have to over rev engine to get some movement, could anyone help who has had the same problem or has an answer on what i should do?

hi guys ok so i decided to do a bit more investigation on this so i got in the car with a mate and took it for a drive and after giving it a hit a few times to warm up the diff and gear box we went to a empty industrial road and started to turn the car. I steped outside to see if it woul lok up but all i saw was that the when you stop the car and take off and turn it shudders but the rear and front wheels move normal.

I have been advised that because i have a jim berry Full monty that the clutch is a Brass button and when it heats up on the fly it tends to shudder

I am lost now guys not to sure what it could be is there any ideas ?

so you are saying that you have to rev the car harder to get it to move? it could be one of a few issues. it could be a siezed brake (or hand brake), diff issue or clutch/gearbox issue. might be worth starting by jacking the car up and seeing how easy it is to spin each of the wheels. that may also help you isolate whether it's front or rear diffs causing the issue (if there is a diff issue).

      R34 GT-R Positive Battery Cable Routing

      By Beanie · Posted

      Hi there, after a quick google search I found this topic as I am also relocating the battery to the boot of my 1998 GTT. I was just wondering how you got on with installing the re-routing and specifically the installing of the harness protectors? How do they attach? Are they just a simple "click-in" affair, or do they attach with bolts? Does the GTT have all the necessary fixing holes for them, for example, where they locate on the chassis? Any help you can provide would greatly appreciated.

      R34 squeaking sound from passenger front area

      Stock less likely to carry one like that than urethane, but still can, especially if the bolts are not as tight as they should be. If it's making that much noise you should be able to use a hose as a stethoscope> stick one end in your ear, crouch down and wave it around the various possible noise makers and get someone to lift the front end at the guard lip.

      Broken actuator rod. Could be one of a couple of them broken. Or, it's locked and the central locking actuator is broken/stuck or the actuator rods between it, the lock and the key barrel are jammed or broken similarly. You'll probably need a locksmith/mechanic who is experienced with using slim tools to reach down next to the window glass to manipulate the mechanism. That's assuming that it is not so severely jammed/broken that nothing useful will move.
