As topic states, i am interested in knowing what my rear diff actually is? i have tried to search this site and have found nothing but confliciting statements. im so sick of single spinners. Is the factory rear diff in this car a viscous (like the gtst) or like the gtr a mechanical diff.

My car is a 1993 manual turbo r32 gts4.

thanks

The R32 GTS4 runs the same 2 way mechanical as the GTR does. Only difference is its ratio. 4.375:1 vs the GTR's 4.11:1.

4.375:1 FTW.

I run a tightened up gtr/gts4 center with my 4.363:1 GTST diff ratio. Never single legs it and is perfect with regards to how much throttle is required for it to start locking.

Drive around in tight car parks all day without it chirping/banging and carrying on; unless you give it harder than normal acceleration.

Mines on the blink so unless i can get it repaired i'll be looking for a new one too.

Boss Automotive in Lonsdale. Find out what its worth to rebuild.

Fingers crossed some one comes through with the nismo clutch pack in the other diff thread. Apparently ~$300. + $300 or so in labour. New diff for 600 with some tough nismo clutch packs. :worship:

More than half the price of buying a new harsh aftermarket + fitting. Blows its cost out to almost $1500

Appreciate the info!

I'll deff be confirming that its the diff but either way with the extra 100+rwkw going through it soon i think it would be benefitial for a refresh!

And which other diff thread are you talking about?

Thanks!

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
