Will be running flares, using 18x9.5 all around.

What offset?

I chucked on my gtr rims on the torana. 18 x 10.5 +12 and they had inches to go to fill out the flares

[turbo76lx]

These are +18 but this has all the skyline running gear under it, with the torana you would be looking at a 0 to negative off set.

Nice build mate

Welded up the sump but it distorted to much so I made up another one without the extra extension at the back.

Made a new pick up, still need to make a bracket back to the girdle and modified the windage tray.

Had the ETS-pro from Full Race turn up, finding this unit was the trigger for starting the whole project.

Nice work!

ETS Pro seems to be an elegant solution to control the attessa hardware... just imagine trying to splice your way through the stock attessa wiring/sensors.

Few more things done, rebuilt the clutches in the diff. The bearings and back lash was fine so brought the nismo 3843S-R521 kit but should have brought the 3843S-R520 kit.

The R521 kit came with 4 spring plates, 2 spring discs 4 friction discs and 2 friction plates, this made about 130ft/lb brake away.

I used 2 spring plates, 2 spring discs, 4 friction plates and 4 friction discs, this would be the same as the R520 kit.

The brake away torque to start with was 25 ft/lb and ended up with 69 ft/lb. Gave the pressure rings and the casing a polish with some fine sand paper and filed the

sharp edges, this helped the pressure ring slide smoothly.

Pressure ring before polishing.

After

Polishing the casing where the ears run.

Made some plates to bolt to the flanges for testing and removing the stubs.

Put back together with a quick coat of paint.

Also started to de-burred the block and modified a corner on the fuel tank to give the exhaust more clearance.

Just to confirm, this is an r33 GTR r200?

I've been looking for the part number for the nismo rebuild/upgrade for my r32 GTR.

Who did you source the diff parts from?

Cheers

Hi Justin yes this is out of GTR R33, I would go the 3843S-RS520 kit

This should help for the part numbers. http://www.nismo.co.jp/en/products/competition/lsd/pdf/repair04.pdf

I brought the kit form rhd japan http://www.rhdjapan.com/nismo-r200-mechanical-lsd-disc-kit-rs521.html

Negun also have rebuild kits. http://www.nengun.com/nismo/lsd-repair-parts
