I am putting a RB26 into my R32 gts-t and i am using a RB25 series 1 gearbox. I was searching on the forum but there is nothing about modifying hte drive shaft. I don't know what do i have to do the drive shaft? The guy who is modifying the drive shaft needs to know the measurements of it. any advice would be great. thanks

Mate I have heard of people getting tail sharfts made up and they

normally like to see the car in person and measure it up.They need

to measure the car at std ride height and the suspension travel to

make sure it has enough length and won't restrick movement.Hope

this is of some help

the tailshaft is a fixed length in a skyline, as it has IRS it doesnt move with susp travel.

some people have needed custom front sections (me) while others didnt need to modify at all (Cubes)

  • 2 weeks later...

so all i need is the R33 gts-t yoke and get it custom welded to the R32 shaft. doesnt anyone know the length of the driveshaft? i need to give the measurement to the guy who makes the shaft, however, my car is not drivable and he lives very far from me.

lol

mine would NOT fit, had to shorten shaft.

Cubes DID fit, no shaft mods needed

diff ppl get diff results...not sure why. could have to do with crosmenbers used?? Either way measure it up for try the 33 shaft first before working out if you need a modded one or not

if in doubt measure from back of box with the meatl shroud removed to the rear shaft mounting face. This is all they need, they did the one for our rb26 with RB25 box into s13 with only this measurement.

When we had my engine out on the weekend I compared my stock 32 gtst tailshaft with that of a 32 gtst running a 26 with a 25 box that was in the workshop.. they were practically the same length (minus a couple of mm probably due to the cutting off of the old yoke).

    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
    • I use FCC car launcher. It has an option for different backgrounds, so instead of turning the screen off you can swipe 'up' to a black screen with no background/icons. (mine has the time on it only). It's kinda nice. Also lets you use gestures to say swipe to go to next song, etc.
