Ive got an S15 R200 Helical LSD, and I would like to put it into my Series 2 Stagea RS four, which has an R200 non-lsd diff. Has anyone had any experiences with transplanting the S15 diff centres ? Im a bit concerned about the output shafts, as ive heard the S15 ones are unique, would it be interchangeable ??? thanks

thanks, that would be easy except that the S15 uses 3x2 bolt, 31mm dia, 30 spline output shaft, stagea is a 5x1 bolt, not sure size yet. guess if i can find a 5x1 bolt, 31mm dia, 30 spline output shaft ill be in business, ill check the wreckers.

chook..

Check out the R34 GT N/A variants and see what half shafts they run. You 'may' be in luck.

If not you will be selling the diff.

I looked in to dropping an S15 centre in to my R32 and found a set of compatible axles (don't remember exactly what they were off) BUT I opted against as the S15 rears are weak and tend to let go at around 200rwkw, god help it behind the rb30det.

Torque breaks things. :S

thanks, Nissan seems to have changed to the 30 spline shafts for the late models, are you sure they are weak, some people seem to say they used the same helical centre in the R34 GTR.

Fatz got a S15 diff into his old HR31 coupe (r200 longnose housing, being helical trpe LSD also)....

HR31 boys suffer the same issues, theres not much of a choice of aftermarket diff's out there compared to a short nose R200.

Will be interesting to see how you get on with it all....

666DAN, thanks, did you swap it for your viscous LSD and use your R34 GTT output shafts ? went straight into the S15 Helical LSD ?

the S15 is 30 spline, most pre-R34 skylines are 31 spline i believe, hopefully Nissan kept them uniform for the R34/ S15, thanks

    • Oh, another question comes to mind though. What sort of shitty fuel are you feeding it. Mine, a turbo, has to be fed 98RON, so it doesn't ping itself to death. 98 in Oz is good, dense fuel with minimal oxygenated compounds. Meaning that the energy density is high, and if the O2 trim is working, you will get more MPG than with a lesser fuel. If you're using some sort of piss poor E10 blend with some other MBTE or other oxygenated additions, that could explain using more per mile.
    • I have no idea where the thump is coming from, it sounds like its from behind me but im not exactly sure. And it was the HICAS light that came on.   I think a complete delete is the route im going to go. Probably going to pick up the kit within the next month and get it installed. HICAS is just going to end up being a headache if I keep it.    Thanks you. 
    • Just putting this here for reference for other beginners. Similar to what I said above.  I learnt if you have a few dents that are fairly close to each other (within a couple of inches maybe 2-4 inches?) Use filler across them all and sand it all at once with the long block as opposed to fixing them seperately.  Will make life MUCH easier because you won't get stuck in the cycle that I did. I think doing it seperately there is some overlap (mean your whole repair zone might cover near the area of the other dent) and you start sanding near the other dent making a low spot.
    • Yes to both! Yes to standard ECU and tune, but exhaust is aftermarket. Unsure on brand. Actually have it sitting in at my desk haha! I have to set it up on my laptop but this is a great next step, will do. So I generally try to shift before 4.5K RPM most times. I largely don't do a lot of high-rev driving, but I will take it up to red 1-2x a week max, as I know the occasional "Italian tune-up" is good for these cars.  Oh wow, is this way better than what I'm getting. Does this mean there's a good chance I have an issue?   Thanks for all the info so far guys.
