  1. Thanks guys for all the advice!!! My diff has worn out today It started rattling and making noises, luckily only a block away from the mechanics! I got it there safely, thank god. I will go ahead with rebuilding the stocker, I was told by Ben a race pace that they are mechanical anyway. Obviously nothing compared to the after market options. Although come to think of it the stocker isn't so bad, to think about it its lasted around 13 years on my car and who knows how bad it was treaded in Japan. I can tell you for sure that when it arrived the oil was putrid and the diff made noises when reversing. Ive maintained it and to be honest it has had a bit of a work out on occaision. To last as long as it has, I think its pritty damn good. I love the drivablility and it has never been a problem since the lsd has started to wear out. I think it will be great to have a fresh diff. And at the moment unfortunately I don't have the funds to indulge in an aftermarket lsd, then on top of that replace what may be damaged. Although in the distant future if the lsd starts to wear out, at least I will know that the one I will purchase will be going into a pritty fresh diff that will be well looked after. Thanks Heaps Guys Mark
  2. Thanks heaps for all the info guys! I just need to raise the rest of the funds and then we may go about rebuilding the stocker! Thanks Mark
  3. Thanks for all your advice so far guys! Is there any more local places I can try? Thanks Mark
  4. Hi Guys, Im after an aftermarket lsd centre for my r32 gts-t. I would prefer that the centre is new of very close to new and located in Melbourne. Thanks Mark
  5. Hi RedDrifter, Thanks for your advice man! I think I will be looking at a 1-way or 1.5-way although I would like to know the difference between the two. As far as I know the 2-way would be more suitable for track/drift cars. Is there any places in melbourne that would stock a centre? Thanks Mark
  6. Ash thankyou very much Does anyone know anybody that stocks aftermarket centre's? Thanks Mark
  7. Hi Guy's, Thanks for the opinions. Yes Ash it has been a long time! Hows ur beast? I've just done some research and I don't think a mini spool would be good to go for, I don't like the fact that its locked even under de-acceleration. Does anyone know where to get a mechanical centre from? Ash where abouts did you get your diff done & will the lsd last? Thanks heaps so far guys take care Mark
  8. Hi Guys, I have a r32gts-t and I have noticed my lsd is starting to wear out. The diff has been whinning since I bought the car and only since got a bit louder. My car is at the mechanics at the moment and I getting it looked at today. I will be getting all the bits that are worn out replaced. Although im not too sure what to do with the lsd. I have been recomended a mini-spool and when considering rebuilding the diff and getting a mini-spool, its far better off than spending almost double in a japanese lsd. I would like some opinions regarding the lsd and what people think of mini-spool. Thanks Mark
  9. Can you please send me pics of the turbo to: [email protected] or [email protected] Also I would like to know whether there is any shaft play? What it would be like on a rb25? And will it fit on the factory manifold? Thanks Mark
  10. Hi Guy's, If you're after a mint 33 that is in top condition and has been well looked after, then definitely have a look at this one. This is the cleanest 33 I have ever seen that hasn't been in a spray booth. If I didn't have my 32, I 'd buy it of you... Take care and best of luck with the sale!
  11. Thankyou for your reply I think this turbo could possibly be too big for my needs, Im after something that will make full boost in the late 3xxxrpm's and make mid to high 2xx kw range. Sorry if I have inconvenienced you at all. P.S Would you know of something suitable at a similar price??? Thankyou Mark
  12. Hi, It looks like a really nice turbo. Im after something that will bolt on and offer more power. What kind of applications will it suit? How laggy will it be on a rb25? What power output is it capable of? My car has excedy clutch, blitz ic, full exhaust, pod, power fc and blitz ebc. So once I upgrade my turbo I will need to get a z32 afm and a fuel pressure reg or better injectors. Thanks Mark
  13. That sounds great!!!! May I ask where abouts you sourced the 2535 from? Thanks Mark
  14. Ahh thats a relief sound like theres nothing to worry about then. I have a huge bottle of wb40 sitting in the garage Thanks a heap Guy's Mark
  15. Hi Guys, Just a quick question, almost a year ago I purchased a set of height adjustable Tein coilovers for my r32 gts-t. At the very top of the shock there is a little nob that can be turned, which I was told can adjust the stiffness and softness of the shock. I used to be able to turn it and it used to click when changing the settings. Just the other night I went to have a look at it and I can't turn the nob's anymore. Does anyone know what this means? Thanks Mark

    I washed my car last night and on some very small parts it looks like a snail has sat on it. Don't know what to get it off with.

    The same thing happened to me last night when I was at a friends house I used my mates hose to get most of it off and tonight im going to give it a good wash. You think it could have done any damage to my nice fresh paint???
  18. Hi Gordo, Im very sorry to hear about your problem man I really hope you get everything sorted ok... In my opinion, you have a rb25 and you want to do the conversion so just drop it in. If you don't have the relevant funds get a shit box to get you round coz if you were rebuilding the 20 you would need it anyway. Thats just my opinion on the situation. Take Care Mark
  19. Hi Guys, I have recently completed a rb25 conversion in my r32 and unfortunatly my FET Strut Brace doesn't fit anymore. $100 ono I also have a RB25 temp sender. $20 Im in Melbourne. Take it easy Mark
  20. Hi Guys, Im really sorry I don't have a scanner How could i get it on the net?
  21. Hi Guys, I have an rb25 in my 32 and its making 197.6kw's at the wheels on 11.5psi. I have apexi exhaust, blitz lm intercooler, blitz ebc, apexi power fc, and pod. Hope that helps
  22. Hi Guys, With the tailshaft I used the front piece from the 33 as it goes straight into the back of the rb25 gearbox and the back piece of my orignal one as it goes straight into the back of the diff. The tailshaft will have to be sent to a specialist to be balanced and shortned. With the rb25 loom you will also need to find someone that knows what they are doing to wire it up to the 32. I waited 3-4 weeks or so for a guy I wanted to do the job. As I didn't know it was going to be a problem I wasn't prepared and had to wait all of that time. There is a thread on how fix the speedo drive problem. I bought a gtr drive that fits into the gearbox and fitted the rb25 wheel on it. I also had my hicas disabled with a lock kit. Make sure when you guys get an engine that you check the stud bolts on the exhaust manifold. It is a common problem for the heads to snap off. While the engine is out make the most of it and change them. Although when doing so you will have to change the manifold gasket also. Take Care Mark
  23. Hi Boosted_32 how did you go searching for the posts?
