Lsd In 4wd Stagea?

I am keen to get a 2way Nismo LSD for my 4WD S1 when it arrives.

I have a few questions though,

I know how a good 2way acts in a light RWD car (My AE86), and I am quite a fan of the handling improvements it makes.

How much different will this be to a heavy 4WD car with Attesa?

Will the loss of rear end traction make the Attesa power up the front wheels?

This sounds a bit dangerous and unbalanced.

Can anyone shed some light on the situation?

Thanks

the autech version came out with LSD as standard ( if it was 1.5 way or 2 way LSD I dont know )

I presume that means the 260rs Autech version? ( still pretty new to this )

so If Nissan did it from factory then it must be ok .. only thing to find out is if its a 1.5 way or a 2 way LSD

Is it going to be an Auto your putting it in?

yeah get a manual

get a 2 way

go drifting

on a side note though

you should be fine, if it wants to kick, the atessa will pull power and put it up front anwyays

I don't really want a manual. My AE86 is setup well for sliding.

I want a practical car that can allow me to have some 'fun' when the mood is right.

I'm not worried about the rear end kicking out, more about the front end gripping up as the attesa gives it power (pulling out of the slide aggresively)

the rs4s has a lsd - in fact it has the same gtr diff as the 260rs. see http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...563&hl=rs4s

Drive it it is hard to tell what the impact is, as we haven't really got it ever sliding! Car behaves like it's on rails...

well, considering you have a S1 RS4 NOT an RS4 S that really doesn't have much bearing here Grant. Ian is talking about the S2 RS4 S that, apart from being a factory manual, has a lot of extra gear the RS4 doesn't have, and the LSD is only a part of a long list.

Ian - is the factory lsd a 1 or 1.5? would be good to know if one ever popped up on the auctions.

i thought he meant RS4s as in plural

nope, as the post above this states - I meant a RS4S (which is what I said)! Follow the link for details.

newbie101, not sure. What does the gtr one do as it probably is the same. (As said, I just haven't had my stagea sliding at all - it doesn't do it on wet roads, wet tram tracks, or even the odd dirt road). Mind you, I'm not trying to slide it in the first place...

ive had abit of experience with the gtr lsd and in 2wd and 4wd (had around 550rwhp), 2wd = major major drift action and damn easy to control these long wheel base designs, i could fishtail up the road as far as i want and in any gear lol :) and 4wd is pretty damn good i never really tried any hard cornering with full power because i never got a chance, but 8000rpm launches and its smokin the 2 rears and 1 front wheel ;)

oh god i miss the power of my baby, the gto is seriously lacking in the power department at the moment :)

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
