Defiantly worth the effort. Both wheels lock well under power. Can boost it rite up in tight corners and also both compression lock up under braking and the car remains straight. Feels much, much better then the 2-way LSD in the Passage. When it does let go in a power slide the control is incredible compared to before. A recomended mod for anyone.

Where are you located? Would you do the job for others as I don't have the appropriate tools and my car always one legs and pulls to one side. Obviously some moola will be given. Can post the internals so you don't have to take the entire diff.

Its a very time consuming process and time is something I don't have at the moment. Probably give me a month and PM me and it might be possible. Between this car and work there's nothing left. Sorry.:(

On another note I hit a realy tight corner yesterday going way too fast and got a chirp from the inside wheel so its defiantly working well.

saved our ass here in the UAE =) doing it now.

fitted em up, what a bitch to get the center back into the car lol. when i finaly got it in, the splines on the longer half shaft didnt line up in the final section. what a bitch, back out with the center it came, i did actualy line up the splines like you said, might i add for anyone else doing this. once you put ur shims in put both half shafts into the center completly in, then tighten the 2 philips heads, then leave the shafts in. put ur ring gear over the top and rattle that up with the half shafts still in the center. makes it alot easier and no room for error. the first time i was literaly .2mm off the splines being 100percent. and yet it wouldnt go in all together.... peace!

Any chance of getting the pics working again really want to give this a go. So say about 3mm would be good for drifting or should i go more like 3.4?

Pretty much depends how screwed your diff is, it'll basically either be almost completely locked or it'll skip around corners and open up under power (worst of both worlds), or it'll be the same.

So just go the biggest you can get in there if you want to lock it, if you want it to be like an LSD just get an LSD.

My local Nissan had them in stock.. did they say they were ex-east? or ex-japan?

3 weeks sounds about right from Japland, everything I've gotten that was ex-east gets sent in an overnight bag so I have it within a couple of days (case in point, ordered a brake booster 1-way valve on Saturday that was ex-east and it arrived yesterday).

just got around to putting mine in,both sides have a shim or 2 with 3 in total so i've got more then 3.6+ mm in there nearing 4 id say (will need to double check invoice to confirm).

so question is how long does it take to bed/ wear in as in getting some shuddering under hard cornering ?

Hello!

I have heard that you can´t shim up a GTST Diff for it´s a viscodiff and not a lsd diff, the shims may take all the power from the diff and the viscodifferential will break? That a shimmed diff will not work in the long run? Is this bullshit or true?

Many people seem very happy with their but boring if it would break!?

sorry for my bad English, I am Swedish pirate.gifaction-smiley-069.gif

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
