hi everyone!

might be about to buy a rear subframe off a 32gtr to fit to my 180sx. the guy that i'm buying it off says the standard 32gtr's have a 2way mech diff.... is this correct???

also do you guys think it's worth it??? he wants $750 for the whole thing(half shafts, diff, subframe, rotors, calipers and hubs)

cheers guys,

ash. :P

Sorry Duncan but an R200 is the standard GTS-t viscous diff and it is certainly NOT a 2-way... GTR diffs (R220) were only one way.

cheers

I don't know where you get your info, but Duncan is correct, R32 GTR uses R200 diff and the standard LSD centre is mechanical (ie clutch pack). I've had the one out of my GTR, plus inspected the centre and it's 2-way (most definately stock - believe me I've seen the inside of more than 1 or 2....)

R32 GTSt also uses R200, but has a viscous LSD.

I've never heard of such a thing as an 'R220' diff used in any Nissan, but there is an R230 type that is used in Z32 turbo.

Seems there is some confusion here. My GTR certainly has a tight rear mech LSD, looks factory.... but are they 200 or 220? And 2way, 1way, or 1.5?

There's no confusion about the diff type.....R200. No such thing as an 'R220' AFAIC.

The factory GTR WS manual lists the rear diff as R200 and FAST confirms as well.

Also AFAIC the factory R32 GTR LSD centre is 2 way.

Yeah. No confusion. Did you not read the contradicting posts at the start of the thread. :O

That said, thanks for providing a SOURCE of info confirming it (w/s manual).

Now, can anyone tell me what TYPE of mechanical diff it is - 2-way, 1-way, or 1.5-way. I know (well, I've read on here) that it is helical, but that's it.

OMG WTF FLAMES LOL. im jelouse.

to fit the diff/subframe.

swap the diff flange from the 180sx diff.(i hpoe its a non abs 180)

unbolt the subframe. bolt the new one up,happy days.

you will have to use r32gtr rear suspension as the lower mounting is differant., but thats pretty much it.

a very straight forward conversion :O

(r200) 2 way mechanical lsd,,,not very tight,

R220=220MM crownwheel (RD) (Z32 TT)

r200=200mm crownwheel (RC)

r180=180mm crownwheel (RB)

r160=160mm crownwheel (RA)

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
