    You'll have a very hard time finding an off the shelf solution for this. I've listed 3 possible options for you below which are made by plazmaman for the R32, R33 and R34

    R32 - https://plazmaman.com/shop_itemdetail.php?itemid=326&cate=73
    R33 - https://plazmaman.com/shop_itemdetail.php?itemid=325&cate=73
    R34 - https://plazmaman.com/shop_itemdetail.php?itemid=324&cate=73

    Edit: Looks like the links aren't working; here you go.

    Without custom work, this is about as close as you'll get.

    In terms of an AAC fitting you'd need to ask Plazmaman if it's either included or if they could put one on for extra money.

    I'm not here to say I'm an angel or whatever.. we've all gone fast or bashed a skid on a public road but there's a huge difference between giving it a squirt in the nasho and having a full blown drag race between a 1500hp GTR and R32 with completely f**ked suspension on an open road and if you can't see or admit that you're naive.

    I'm surprised one of them didn't slam into one of many parked trucks to be honest.


    Sure; it's not the workshops fault, but by having interviews at the workshop in question, filming in their car park that late at night and racing on the street right outside it sure does beg the question...

    You won't regret this upgrade!  First modification step beyond tyres and pads should be a cradle bush + diff centre + HICAS eliminate + bump steer eliminate.  A bit of time spent in that area pays off big time for any half serious driving in a boat.

    I tend to agree, I had a lot of in-lift at wakefield only running 190kw-ish through a most probably tired stock LSD, I want to go back and see how it goes with the new LSD.

    I know my suspension can probably be blamed for this too, but I will look into that in the coming months :)

    I'm keen to get it in!

    Dropped all the bits off to Award Diff and Gear after multiple counts of great feedback on this forum. I had the LSD Center installed with all new bearings and seals as per the nismo kit as well as a new Pinion bearing installed and pinion oil seals to finish up.

    Trish was absolutely lovely and had my Diff Center installed and ready to pick up in less that 24hr's.

    The diff is now home awaiting cradle bush arrival hopefully this week. getting keen!

    Pro or standard? I had the standard Nismo 1.5-way put into mine last year, based on the total sample of 1 track day, it's awesome on the track. Less so on the street, I hope yours is not a daily in suburban traffic ;)

    Just the GT LSD, non pro edition.

    Thankfully my daily is a bus! My car only comes out for spirited drives and the odd track day and I'm happy to put up with some noise for the added benefits.

    If i was using the car as a daily/commuter I'd probably look toward the helical option, or just standard but thankfully that's not the case :)

    Woo!

    I've got myself a spare subframe on the cheap, so while I wait for other things to arrive I will be welding in some reinforcement plates, putting some new cradle and diff bushes in and eventually installing the new diff!

    :D

    What time did you end up getting?

    How are the new ripple strips?

    Track day was back in September last year so I think the ripple strips were still small at that stage? In any case, not really noticable!

    In terms of time, I ran about a 1:18 or so, I have a feeling I was pushing the nismo suspension a little too much.. On the street it's great and quite comfortable, but on the track it felt far too soft.
