Yet another r31 question,

The rb30det in stock form is supposed to put out 150kw at the flywheel stock. My R31 was originally auto and non turbo. With the rb30det and a 5 speed manual, will the borg warner auto diff put up with the punishent that the rb30det and 5 speed put out?

And would anybody be able to tell me what the diff ratio for the auto and manual is ?

I guess the speedo will be affected if a diff change is done?

Not RB30DET, you're talking about the RB30ET.

If you're running a stock turbo setup, it will cope with the abuse for a little while, but it will definetly not last as long as if you were to leave it standard of course. It all depends on how you treat it. If you putter around and only open it up here & there, drive it responsibly then it will probably last for a decent about of time. If you flog the arse out of it everywhere you go, drop burnouts and drive everywhere sideways then say goodbye to it VERY quicky.

Manual ratio is 3.7 and the auto is 3.9. If you change the diff ratio then yes your speedo will miss read. I'd leave the 3.9 ratio in there anyway due to the better acceleration.

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof  
    • Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
    • You got any more detailed photos of the tow ball set up?
