I was assuming after all.

Merry Xmas... ho ho ho.. :D

So the R33 N/A runs a 4.08:1 ratio.

The R200 comes in a variety of ratio's so we have plenty to choose from.

All that is required is a change of the crown and pinion.

Right from 3.7 (3.69 I think to be exact), 3.9, 4.08, 4.11, 4.363:1, 4.6 I think it was, I also do remember there was some even higher diff ratio's.

All parts are also very cheap.. Just a pitty there isn't as much of an option for the VL.

There is one option. The R31 runs a 3.7:1 and 3.9:1 ratio. Take your pic. :cheers:

Best bet is to head over to calaisturbo.com

They know the ins and outs of which diff fits what.

I do know a friend of mine is going to fit up a 3.9 or 3.7:1 diff ratio in to his VLT open wheeler depending on availability.

He prefers the 3.7:1 but 'may' end up going the 3.9:1.

I used Pintara 4.11 crown wheel and pinion on my aussie built r31 skyline with the borg warner diff . I fitted the crown wheel to the skyline centre . It bolts straight in ( bolt holes are the same ) . The skyline has 4 side gears as against the pintaras 2 . Also skyline has 28 spline axles , pintara 25 spline axles . My diff is open centre but i have fitted a mini spool which cost me $ 77 new . I,m not sure about axles for a VL think they are 25 spline with the turbo model having 28 spline , i may be wrong .

By the way my engine is rb30de , and was happy with 3.7 gears , but i just wanted better times at the drags , hence the 4.11 mini spooled diff .

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
