Seeing as it was such a lovely night last night (cold) i thought i would go and practice some drifting around the factory areas at 3am when there isnt anyone else around.

It lasted one corner :P

Did ok coming into the corner.... coming out of it was a little different.

Was holding it sideways quite well going down the rd after the corner but let off the accelerator (i think this is why it happend) too much and the tyres gripped and threw me the other way more than i was meant to and was about to go head on into the meadian strip so i punched the accelerator all the way to the floor to get the wheels spinning and try and pull out of it and managed to flick it the other way and slow myself down a little more before hitting the concrete/grass sideon with the back wheel.

All i got out of it was a flat tyre (rear tyre sperated a little from the rim) which cost $20 to fix! :D

Think i will just wait until the good doctor shows me properly :)

      R34 Diff oil

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones

      R34 Diff oil

      No. Well, some people "seem to use redline shockproof in the diff". Most do not. I would only contemplate it if you have badly worn CW&P gears. And no. No-one in their right mind has ever put ATF into a diff. Any normal diff/gear oil of the right viscosity will do. Whatever takes your fancy. Castrol, Nulon, Penrite, Redline MT range. Whatever. It's just gears. 75W-90 or 80W-90 is typical. I think that GL-5 is hard to avoid these days, although I think that a GL-4 is probably preferred, given the vintage of the equipment. At least Redline offer a number of GL-4 oils. If you have a clutch type LSD instead of the VLSD, then of course you need a proper LSD oil. Anything from any of the same names above. If you have a helical LSD, then it does not require LSD oil, and the recco is the same as for the VLSD. You don't want the LSD friction modifiers in the oil for a non-clutch type LSD if you can avoid it.

      You may want to list it up for a little higher - This price is much lower than you may realize. Here you're pretty much selling to people who most likely already have these things on their own rigs. S chassis people eat this stuff up like you'd not believe.
