Hi guys.

With the new section, its looking a bit bare, best thing to brighten it up are good useful sticky threads :)

If someone has an idea, post here or PM me.

I was thinking if someone can post up formula's to workout diff ratios and things like that... would be very handy for a sticky.

You'll be credited with the information of course and all that :D

Throw ideas out there

um. To figure out any gear ratio the formula is: the number of teeth on the driven gear (crown wheel) divided by the number of teeth on the driving gear (pinion) eg: crown wheel 20 teeth, pinion 10....

SO 20 divided by 10 = a ratio of 2:1... easy.

i whould just check the diff have never come across a single diff that did not have the ratio stamped onto it some where with out a plate on it some where

so why try and work it out?

Because people get diff gears changed

can we get a thread up on recomended oils to use in gearboxs, vlsd and mechanical lsds. say in my gearbox i use fuchs 75/90 because i found the redline shockproof crap and in my kaaz 2 way i use fuchs ls140 with ford motorsport additive. i notice alot of people use castrol syntrax and find it good

Is it possible to get a sticky thread made up about 33 boxes into 32's. So many people still cant use the search function. I know there are a few good threads about the conversion maybe they can be put into one thread?

I think a sticky on gearbox identification would be awesome, like being able to tell by the webbing on the housing/dimensions/weight/any numbers stamped on box, gear diagrams, 1piece/3piece syncros stuff like that :)

heres a link from nismo that has all diff types ,ratios & models they come out in

http://www.nismo.co.jp/products/competitio...f/lsd_price.pdf

there is a lot of usefullinfo on the above but cant seem to find out wether my 32 has a VLSD or just a LSD (?)

    • Thanks for the quick reply. To be clear, when you say turbo shuffle do you mean turbo flutter "stustustu" or referring to something else? I had thought they were the same thing. When I wrote the post my intention was to say it wasn't a flutter/compression surge sound. My understanding was that a flutter sound would be occurring when throttle is released, whereas I can keep the throttle in the same position for this noise
    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
