Diff repair for the R34, where to go?

[OZ GTR35]

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.

[OZ GTR35]

Yup its an original VSPECII so I can see an issue already

*Gulp* this is where people start spitting the dummy lol

I suggest just look up Yellow Pages for "Transmission SPECIALISTS" and ask the people you call who the best are.

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

ahh cmon, I got mine for $500. Contact the importers, they have to pull the damn things out because most buyers are scared off by them

clunk clunk clunk muahahahah the best my car ever went

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.

Currently following a line on a new diff product in Japan that is about $350 plus freight for an LSD. I'll keep you all posted.
