Someone told me they know of one to suit skyline.... thats the one im looking for.

Not much help but they do make em.

Were any XE or XF Falcons IRS?

why would you want to do that?

if you want a diff wich is much stronger just use a z32 tt diff.

r220. 220mm vs 9 inch 228mm.

it will bolt up using gts4 driveshafts and WONT BREAK. not sure about the axels but.

how much power are you running?

r200 diff's and r32 driveshafts/tailshafts have a reputation for handling as much power as you can throw at it.... 9 inch conversions are very uncommon because the stock diff is strong enough...

Stuart's car will make a shitload more power and torque than my car and I explode CV's and snap axles 2 at a time with 265kW.

R33 GTST R200 LSD's and std axles = Rubbish in my opinion. The only reason people say they're 'strong enough' is because 99.9999999% of Skyline drivers ESPECIALLY the ones with big HP cars NEVER race their cars hard. They're all soft - especially the GTR drivers :D

Hmmm.... Z32 R220 with standard gts4 axels or braced 9" with billet axles.

Tough decisions...

Adrian

oh, im sorry. lets see. a diff that bolts up.? or a bulky 1950's based bigger is better truck diff? not that theres anything wrong with them. just try finding one that has a nodular iron case and doesnt use a floating inner axle design.

il choose the r220 and perhaps using shortened r33gtr 31spline axles. hks and pretty much any other 1000hp drag gtr seems to do ok

worst case just get some "billit axles made to suit the diff that fits? or you could try and cut n shut a 9 inch.

but... if you were seriouse you could probably convert the car to a 4 link set up. that would work best. and the nine inch will be very well suited

It's got nothing to do with being serious or not. It comes down to what you can do in the class you want to race in.

Thanks for all the info guys, i am running the car in Oz so 4 link is out and dont have spare 10k to throw at it. I have the R32 GTR diff and shafts fitted, sound like they may be up to it, ill just put a mechanical centre in once i know what gear ratio i want. TRPs R32 skyline has given me some faith.

TRP's R32 ran mid 9's off transbrake with an s15 centre and gtr driveshafts, don't know how much faster you want to go.

Wise move Stewie...no point trying to re-invent the wheel

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
