Well I have my first real issue with the R34, the diff has become a tad noisey with a bearing hum. I have put in the redline Red diff oil, and it seamed to make it worse, so Im looking for a place to get the diff looked at and hopefully repaired. Any suggestions? I would like someone who knows GTR diffs as I dont want to have it f'ed up.

Is it a vspec? If not any of the GTR mechanical centres would be a great option....under $1k for a 1 or 1.5 way mechanical diff. Vspec is totally different I think.

And where exactly do we source one for under 1K?

Oz, I think you have a problem ahead, I would be looking for someone who knows those diffs.....maybe CRD? damn it could be painful

There's a place in Canberra where I got my cusco 2 way rebuilt for my S14. I know he does a lot of late model import stuff. Last time I was in there he had a late model evo diff and a Kaaz 2 way for a skyline on the bench, I'm sure he could handle it if you want to send it to Canberra.

To be honest I think most diff specialists would be able to handle it. Diffs are fairly standard inside. It would just be a matter of getting parts to suit, which would just require a bit of waiting for Nissan. My cusco was done in less than a week.

I went to UAS's recomended Diff place near windsor. I have a diff noise that is not bearings, he told we what it was but in one ear and out another. He suggests it may be due to aftermarket bushes or a gear problem, so its booked in next week to be checked before ripping it out.

      I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side

      Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.

      Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
