what ratio is the stagea front and rear diffs?

what ratio is a r32 gtr?

and a 33 gtr?

how can i tell them apart?

cause ive got a gtr sump modified and its got the gtr front diff in it still and i was wondering whether it was the same as the stagea one so it matches the diff one ;)

thanks

Brad

I thought Stageas where the same as GTS4's, and the autos are different.

Best to count the rotations of the drive shafts versus the input shaft. That will tell you the ratio and only take a few minutes.;)

rs4 rs4v 25gfour etc all seem to have 4.3

rs4s 260rs seem to have 4.1

we had a rs4s rear subframe that we put in our converted car, as far as we can see its identical to our gtr ones (electric hicas etc)

the 260 and the rs4s subframes are narrower than the normal non hicas subframe in the stagea tho, so you will want spacers on the wheels

hope that makes sence

okay have heard of rs4 and rs4v but what is an rs4s? Is that a manual version or something, ie the 1998 onwrds series 2? Just have never seen reference to an rs4s edition. What is different in the spec?

thanks saft.

PS any luck on the exhaust bits as yet?

ahha, cool on the rs4s spec. No dramas on the zorst. thanks for trying though dude. I'm in no rush, probably will get it sorted out at some stage, but if by chance you come across the bits required to complete the set, just PM me through SDU or something, I'm on there more than here obviously, but I'll find the PM here anyway. cheers and have a great break.

The build plate on my RS4V states a final drive of RC 40, which tells me it's an R200 @ 4.083:1. This data corresponds to what is printed on page 108 or the 2003 Nismo catalogue:

WGNC34 4WD ~'98/8;

RB25DET R200 (or R200V), 4.083:1

RB26DETT R200 4.111:1

from Aug 98 onwards;

RB25DET M/T R200V 4.111:1

RB25DET A/T R200 (or R200V) 4.083:1

RB26DETT R200 4.111:1

The shortest diff available was in the 4WD RB25DE '98/8~ at 4.363:1

The R32/33 GT-R's are listed at 4.111:1, while the R34 is a 3.545:1 !!!

well i pulled my stagea front diff apart and the diff crown wheel says LS48:11

and what i beleive is a gtr front diff (my enlarged sump) i checked the crown wheel and it said LS37:9

does this mean 4.11 for the stagea?

and 3.79 for the gtr? (might possibly be a sump from a gts-4 ??)

any ideas guys???

The first number is the number of teeth on the crown wheel. The second number is the number of teeth on the pinion, so..........

48 divided by 11 = 4.363636364

37 divided by 9 = 4.111111111

Hope that helps :(

It's interesting that you have a 4.3 front diff, what does your build plate say for the final drive ratio?

(it will be 'RC xx')

the build plate (blue one) says RC40 :P hope that helps

and also to SK thanks for that info mate it definetely helps :(

well 4.3 will be better for take off i suppose and possibly explains the bad fuel economy on stock rs4 stag's, possibly mine may have been changed

whats everyone elses build plate say for RC..????

cheers

    • Very nice - I also have a 92 GTST and hardly see any others around these days
    • When I need something else to edit, I use Movavi. A friend who does video editing on a daily basis recommended me) it's an easy video cutter to use for beginners
    • I need to edit some videos for work but I'm not good at all this. Which video editor can you recommend?
    • I think you're really missing the point. The spec is just the minimum spec that the fuel has to meet. The additive packages can, and do, go above that minimum if the fuel brand feels they need/want to. And so you get BP Ultimate or Shell Ultra (or whatever they call it) making promises to clean your engine better than the standard stuff....simply because they do actually put better additive packages in there. They do not waste special sauce on the plebian fuel if they can avoid it. I didn't say "energy density". I just said "density". That's right, the specific gravity (if you want to use a really shit old imperial description for mass per unit volume). The density being higher indicates a number of things, from reduces oxygen content, to increased numbers of double bonds or cyclic components. That then just happens to flow on to the calorific value on a volume basis being correspondingly higher. The calorific value on a mass basis barely changes, because almost all hydrocarbon materials have a very similar CV per kg. But whatever - the end result is that you do get a bit more energy per litre, which helps to offset some of the sting of the massive price bump over 91. I can go you one better than "I used to work at a fuel station". I had uni lecturers who worked at the Pt Stanvac refinery (at the time they were lecturing, as industry specialist lecturers) who were quite candid about the business. And granted, that was 30+ years ago, and you might note that I have stated above that I think the industry has since collected together near the bottom (quite like ISPs, when you think about it). Oh, did I mention that I am quite literally a combustion engineer? I'm designing (well, actually, trying to avoid designing and trying to make the junior engineer do it) a heavy fuel oil firing system for a cement plant in fricking Iraq, this week. Last week it was natural gas fired this-that. The week before it was LPG fired anode furnaces for a copper smelter (well, the burners for them, not the actual furnaces, which are just big dumb steel). I'm kinda all over fuels.
    • Well my freshly rebuilt RB25DET Neo went bang 1000kms in, completely fried big end bearing in cylinder 1 so bad my engine seized. No knocking or oil pressure issue prior to this happening, all happened within less than a second. Had Nitto oil pump, 8L baffled sump, head drain, oil restrictors, the lot put in to prevent me spinning a bearing like i did to need the rebuild. Mechanic that looked after the works has no idea what caused it. Reckoned it may have been bearing clearance wrong in cylinder 1 we have no idea. Machinist who did the work reckoned it was something on the mechanic. Anyway thats between them, i had no part in it, just paid the money Curiosity question, does the oil system on RB’s go sump > oil pump > filter > around engine? If so, if you had a leak on an oil filter relocation plate, say sump > oil pump > filter > LEAK > around engine would this cause a low oil pressure reading if the sensors was before the filter?   TIA
