Auto Diff In My Manual & Blue Badges

[Smadge]

Hiya all,

I have a Black '91 R32 GTS25 and the previous owner has had an Auto to manual conversion done to it. Nothing is wrong with the conversion. The gearbox is a re-cond unit and is sweet, stocky clutch is crap but the conversion was done well. The thing is it still has the Auto diff in it. Would like to know what would be the best options for it to be changed to manual gearing. Heard Pintara diff gears fit but bit weary of that option.

Also my car is subtly different to other 32's i have seen. It has Blue 'GT' badging on the sides instead of Red, Driving lights on the front bumper, ABS, Sunroof & Turbo trim in the interior. Is this a limited run model or has it just had a heap of option boxes ticked at the dealership.

Any info would be appreciated.

Thankyou

Blue generally designated an NA, turbo trim?? there is no difference other then a boost guage in the dash.

Yeah ok. I didn't know there wasn't a difference in trims. Must have just been optioned up when new.

Any ideas on the diff?

any turbo or manual diff... i gave my last one away, model number is an r200 same between 32's and 33's not sure about 34's i know the autos are geared taller so im guessing your chasing the 4.11 ratio manual version.

but be carefull with the r200 diff as there is i believe a short nosed and long nosed version

im not sure what the skylines have (i would assume long nose) but u wouldnt want to get the wrong one

(or is that with the r180 diff - i dont no - but ure best of making sure)

Yeah my mate back in Adelaide has a 33 GTS manual and just kept beating me and i even had extractors. took me a while to figure out why. Ill try to chase up some prices on Diffs in the perth area. Cheers for the help guys
