Nismo 1 Way Mechanical Diff

Hi all, due to smashing a drive shaft at the drags I have put a full GTR rear end in my car which has made my Nismo 1 way diff surplus to my needs.

It was in my car for about 5 months. When we put it in it was inspected and found to be perfect. I have taken the back plate off and looked inside since it came off my car and internally it is still fine.

Basically what you get is the centre and off side half shaft. The drivers shaft is no good as you will see from the last pic. It's fine internally just the flange that bolts to the drive shaft is stuffed. I have been reliably told that any old drivers side half shaft will work, ie, reuse your own when installing it but that you absolutely must have the off side one. This is good for me cos I can still sell it. :sick:

I want $700 for it.

Adam, so if I wanted to install this in my car it would be fine? I believe my stock diff is faulty as when turning right hard sometimes the TCS light will come on and immediately cut out some power.

Hows this on the road, does it have any of the clunking noises etc. a 2-way diff would? My cars would be a daily driver so I'm after something quiet/not noticable. Oh and sorry for these two stupid questions but: what are the benefits of this one over the stock one and this is an LSD diff right? Not a locked one?

drive a car with a locker then drive a proper lsd, to totaly diff worlds. basicaly a proper lsd is what u need for a daily. a locker is jst to much and almost impossible to reverse park with lol. your diff doesnt sound like its shagged, probly jst traction control cuttin in, hence the light.

hey bob just like to point out that the reason that you need the driver side shaft is that if you used the passenger side the way the shaft twists eg the torque loading is the opposite way and it will snap the shaft nearly eveytime same for anyone swapping axles make sure they're going to turn the same way or they'll snap/shear

Ok, doesn't sound like a faulty diff Andi.

It wont fit an R32 but it will fit R33 or R34.

Matt, I'm not really sure what you are saying there. I think you are saying don't put the passenger side shaft in the drivers side?? but I'm not sure at all.

Ok I've just been told that the half shaft I need to replace the one I stuffed is from a single spinner. the Viscous LSD's that are in all the turbo Skylines don't fit.

Until I find one then, I am removing the diff from sale except to anyone who takes this information on baord and has one or wants to buy it anyway.

Thanks.

I would be willing to provide a limited warranty to the right person. Eg 6 months and up to 240rwkw or something like that.

I am the SAU NSW Club President so not likely to try to spiv anyone.

I think this will be plenty strong. I would only stipulate that you use high tensile bolts and nuts.

      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!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
