is my diff had it?

[Spook's_Skyline]

r33 4 door 93 model

now prefers to spin up one wheel rather than push the car sideways under power through corners

seemed to happen round the time i got exhaust/dump pipe/upped the boost

any easy way to tell how my diff is travelling?

"is my diff had it?" - Thats the best english i have ever seen

ummm.....yeh if your diff is single spinning is on the way out....but it wont die....

you will probably find you can lock both wheels if you turn 1 way...like left or right.... when you can turn both ways and it still singles.... then you will have to just put up with it....probably cheaper to get a 2nd hand one than a rebuild....

i have the same problem with my diff, single spinning and also a real pain is the clunking from the drivetrain ( i wont say diff because it appears to be coming from around the rear of the gearbox) Like backlash in the tail shaft. Could it be uni's?

I assume backlash in the diff because it has lost LSD action.

In a zoom or HPI there is a LSD viscous diff rebuild with two spacers instead of 1 to improve LSD lock up. Does anyone know of where this can be done and how much, in melb?

Cheers.

I have the exact opposite problem, my diff locks up too easily... lol I've got some sort 2-way mechanical LSD, but its so sensitive, its almost like having a locked diff.
