Would this nismo clutch pack affect the lock up rate or is that controlled by something else?

Compared to a couple mates with nismo and ats diff I find the GTR mech center to require more throttle to have the diff lock; which makes it perfect for limping around in carparks etc. Give it just that little bit more throttle and its locked up and chirping the inside wheel.

With the aftermaret diff on low speed corners it feels like you just slightly touch the throttle and the inside wheel instantly starts chirping and shuddering the car. Makes it impossible without clutching it and rolling to avoid inside wheel chirp when mr police men are around.

My Nismo 1 way would lock up at the second you touched the throttle. Very clunky and somewhat annoying although you do tend to tune out after a while and it generally doesn't bother you. I actually like it when clunking around carparks when people look at you and think, WTF! I also 'accidentally' drop the clutch at low revs to get tiny little chirpies and extra clunks from the diff. It makes me laugh.

Then again, I've got an electric ratchet socket thingie and that makes me laugh too.

I now have a GTR diff in my car and it behaves quietly just like an ordinary car. Your grandma could drive it, although she might have trouble with the clutch.

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
