had a chat with the diff centre place today. the diff is out of the car. the centre is still in tact. they havent opened it yet. the diff housing has an oil feed that goes in the right side, runs around, then pops up and relinks to the right side of the diff. so as you said, its an oil feed. they are going to open the centre up and see whats inside and find outs busted. he has said i can have a kaaz centre for 1500 then another 150 odd to swap it (if its fits) then the original 350 to put it all back in. so im looking at 2 grand. i said im not prepared to spend that. i was originally quoted 350 to open it up and find out whats wrong inside. he will proceed to open the centre (included in the price) and let me know whats the next step. he said i can get a 2nd centre from somewhere else providing it fits but he cant guarantee it will be any better or work better than what i have. he also said it could die anytime as well being 2nd hand. if they change to a kaaz centre they will block off the oil feeds, which will most likely mean the pump wont work and ill have a-lsd errors on the dash all time (which would suck). more to come when i check up on tuesday, after they've opened the centre

there isnt one, youll have to scan your own in ill get my datalogit back soon and have a crack with my fc looks good though, funky colour scheme

it looks at the abs sensors, when it detects wheel spin (slip light comes on) it turns on a hydraulic pump to make it lock. so it sounds like it just pumps in viscous fluid ive had the fluid changed, that didnt help. had a look and poke around, traced the hydraulic lines and found a pump. unplugged it, started car and a-lsd fail would come on. so it sounds like its the pump for it. the idea is to split torque (that i can think of) but as far as i can see it just does a diff lock. i cant see how it can throw power to one wheel but not the other.

gonna get them to open it and find out whats inside and then they will let me know whats busted i could be a simple thing like the pump or it could be the cogs are facked either way im not buying a new centre bugger that given that i wont be driving the car next year ish not worth it. worst case if they cant reco it ill get a 2nd hand gtr diff. i just found that auto diff is 4.3 could i change to that for some more punch or is it too short

hey can i go shorter gears like 4.3

ah good point, didnt think of the gtr centre so is it the same viscous centre as the stock gtr and it just has elec controlled pump to turn it on? cos ive looked underneath and its got the finned cover then it has some hydraulic shit and a pump near the ass end

good find

hey gang, my gtst has the a-lsd vspec diff. its shagged and basically single spins most of the time. the slip light comes on and the electronic side appears to do its thing. it has locked mech previously (burnout photos) so it did work at some stage. its at a place being disected as we speak but i am not sure what to do. he suggested a kaz centre to replaice it. has anyone been down a similar path? can it be fixed? they arent sure if its viscous with pump or mech gears diff. for simplicity i would rather keep it the same cogs and centre (but have it work) can i just replace the inner cogs inside it (if thats whats dead)?

if you want a cutdown version to same some $ go the safc fairly reasonable gains to be had, just not as many load points

airflow makes more power not an ecu. you will certainly gain a good stack of midrange and maybe a touch more max rear wheel power, but dont expect much more. if you tune a big wad of the load points it will drive like a new car. ignition and fuel points

you could use the rb26 djetro and parrellel up the map sensor would probably work

agree

there is no apexi afc that can be tuned by laptop. i think you are confusing the powerfc with the afc or safc. do a search on both to work out which one you are thinking of. there is laptop software for the powerfc

why does it have to be map ?

focus on midrange and average power. if you do that youll make the car quicker on the street, increasing max power at one point simply does that. posting up the dyno plot will reveal the results

its possibly. likely no, possible yes subaru b4 twin turbo has two turbos different sizes

I still dont understand, what did you expect to happen? We can't force people to come. It's upto people to make their own decision about an event and wether they attend or not

What on earth are you talking about? Ash was aware of the contact between you and James. I was as well, we all were. You were given plently of replies if I recall correctly. This event was included in our planning, we had it on our calendar, it was on forums several times and spoken about at our meetings.

cooler piping or cooler piping joiners check them all, use soapy water and look for bubbles to find leaks

the owner of the red gtr32 is GTSR22 you could pm greg and ron and see if they know

powerfc faq covers this and what is involved for ignition tuning and wideband tuning. its all covered in depth also see -> http://members.dodo.com.au/paul/docs/power...powerfc-faq.htm

munna's tuning guide covers this, do a search for it or look in the tutorial section. alternatively http://members.dodo.com.au/paul/ -> product info -> Nissan z32 airflow meter

no what it means is that the extra gains came from the advanced timing that was done on the tune level. it is likely that the plenum changed achieved zero.

on a side note you can use the stock cam gears with a dongle fitted to adjust them. mine has a dongle fitted to make the exhaust side adjustable (gained nothing). so you can retain vct and have them adjustable
