R34 Gtr Diff Into S15

That kind of depends on what you mean by "gearset". If you mean the CW&P, then there is a pretty bloody good chance that they will be mountable on both centres. I say this because the centres are the same - the same helical centre.

Same, but with one difference. That is that the splines for the axles are different. The GTR are of course the big strong 6 bolt ones, and the S15 are the smallest weakest 3x2 bolt ones.

So, for the sake of argument, there's no point in considering the other alternative diffs available in the 2 cars (the viscous centre in the S15 and the active diff in the R34) as they are both shit. Ignoring those 2 diffs, there's no point in swapping anything other than the CW&P. Given the slight change in gearing available from the GTR gears into the S15, I'm not sure I could be bothered with all the work to achieve it.

Next question why?

Also the S15 runs a perfectly good helical / torsen centre.

Unless you're making stupid power or a really into circuit racing or drifting then swapping "may" be feasible however given the plethora of diff centres made specially for the R34 GTt and S15 you would be pretty mad to just use a R34 GTR centre provided it even fits.

Don't see an issue with the S15 diff with that power... but if you want to make it stronger, swap over to a R32 or R33 Skyline diff as it runs 5x1 bolts not 3x2 smaller bolts.

A car I recently worked on and re-tuned shits out 320kW at the rear and gets tracked every month or 2nd month and still is completely fine.

What about changing diff ratio to 4.11 is there a crown and pinion that is interchangeable?

In general, all the Skyline and S chassis CW&P sets are interchangable. There are 2 sizes of bolts that can make life more interesting.

Question though.....your initial question was about putting an even taller diff into the S15 diff (from 3.7 or whatever they are down to 3.5 or whatever the R34 GTR diff is) and now you're asking about going shorter. I'm just checking to make sure you aren't confused about what you want to achieve.

Bit of a late reply but I swapped my s15 diff out for a r33 gts-t / gtr centre.

I bought a r33 gts-t diff and r33 gtr diff. Both were 4.11:1 ratio IIRC. I bought driveshafts from an r33 gtr too.

I dropped it off to a diff specialist and asked them to pull the centre out of the gtr and put it in the gts-t housing.

A few days later I picked it up. It all bolted straight back in the s15 subframe and the gtr driveshafts bolted up without any problems. Standard tailshaft went back in and I was on my way again. I was also able to retain ABS as the gts-t had the single wire speed sensor / abs sensor (whichever one it is).

If you pull the gtr centre and install to the gtst housing, that means you are using the gtst driveshaft?

As far as i know, the gtr driveshaft will not fit S-chassis as the spline counts are different on the hub, gtst driveshaft will fit s-chassis though

No, if you use the GTR centre, you HAVE to use the GTR stub axles. The housing doesn't make any difference in the decision.

But the other aspects of your post are true. S and R chassis 5 and 3x2 bolt stubs are basically interchangeable (for the same types of diff.....let's not bring in the confusion of helicals and stuff).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
