R32 gts4 sedan differential questions


Recommended Posts

Anyone upgraded the front and rear diffs in the GTS4?

Im running (just installed) a os88 box with a built rb26/30 with g35-1050, I am shooting for 800whp  (it's winter here and car is getting some parts installed) but still have the same short GTS4 ratios diffs front (open) and rear (LSD).

I hate when under acceleration car currently has 577whp and 430tq at 22psi (on t04z) the front is all over the road. 

I would like to upgrade the front as I'm planning to run 50/50 with ets-pro. I don't want to blow up a front diff.

Or is there something I can install in the front diff as it's open to make it LSD. 

Not sure exactly what I would need to order or even if I do.

The car is mainly a Street car with some drag days.

 

Thanks for the help 

 

Fyi, I search on this forum for hours and can't find anyone that upgraded a front gts-4 diff... All are gtrs

So, the diff is pretty much the same between GTS4 and GTR. The ratio difference is due to the number of teeth on the crown wheel and pinion, and they are commonly swapped between GTR and GTS4.

Assuming you are just looking for a decent LSD, the other variable is the number of splines on the driveshaft that goes into the diff centre; they might be the same GTS4 vs GTR but I'm not sure. From a quick check late 32 and 33 GTR had 31 spline half shafts and they have a 6x1 bolt pattern, not sure if GTS4 is the same.

If it is the same you can use any 32 GTR centre; if not you need a GTS4 specific centre, or you need to change the half shafts and drive shafts as well which might be hard to find

I used Stagea diffs (4.08:1) in my R32 GTS4 after I swapped in a RB25DET from a Stagea. Simply swapped CW / pinion onto the R32 centres. Installed a speedo drive from a GT-R to bring the speedo back into line. (Front diff is still open,but then I don't have mind-boggling power - 180aWkw is enough to scare me!)

    • Motor done back together, surprised is a understatement with this rb30. just think 10m under flood waters for a couple weeks, 20lt water inside the engine for 3years. cleaning the cooling system installing new plugs leads and overflow bottle and then I’m closing the bonnet moving onto the restoration of the body.    already finished few external pieces for putting the puzzle back together. this has been very enjoyable, frustrating at times definitely. Moving forward with my silo sub!!! thank you to everyone that has helped me so far, ✌️ att.jiLuuIrdYfPMplUAOjVfrq4OOOc082zjTnt1kJrhKVQ.mp4
    • Oooh, right. That makes so much more sense. For some reason I was picturing them selling a variety of pipe ends with nipples on them... Solid reasoning.
    • 100% this, no point delivering a steam oven when the client just wanted a toaster 
    • The best part of my setup is, we only have two sites. Our head office where I'd put every thing has plenty of internet capacity. We're on a 200/200 dedicated fibre. Even better, there's only like 6 people in the office at most, and the other office has 2 people in it (likely 3 soon). The majority of our work is in a custom piece of software, as it is part of the backend of the system we provide to customers. For our arrangement, on prem would be wayyyyy easier, and a VPN tunnel site to site is easy for me to manage. Scaled at many many sites, or quite a few hundred employees it's starts getting a bit different for all people outside the head office. However, everything in the cloud becomes worse for the people who operated previously at the site that held the servers, as now they're at the mercy of their internet, and not GBPS internal network (f**k the idiots who hook a desktop PC up on WiFi or permanently sit at a desk using a laptop and don't go remotely with it).   It really does come down to the business needs and structure as to what is best. For us, 365 is mainly being moved to for office apps, moving email from Google to Exchange, and setting up "Active directory". Otherwise we have a ticketing system with support that runs on our own cloud system, or the sales process sits in a CRM we pay for. My biggest push back for having most of the shit turned off and saying no when people want new shiney things is "that won't meet our security requirements, or efficiency gains, so all you're requesting is money spend to open us up to security issues, or to make our staff less efficient" Which is funny when one of our core values is "To do more, with less"
    • Think of it as a fancy iFrame with the auth passed through to PowerBI as you're already authenticated logged into Teams   I'm the complete opposite, I hate everything on Prem, it's slow as shit, you need VPNs to get anything happening, then when you want on-prem DBs to talk to say PowerBI you need to install/setup data gateways to essentially VPN back into your SQL instance. I suppose from my perspective, on-prem sucks, but from an infrastructure perspective, your environment is somewhat air gapped to the web via your firewall(s), etc.   The curse of knowledge, the more you know the more you suffer. Farken philosophical shit.
