hey guys,

a little while ago i broke the diff in my r32 gtst it was just squealing really bad i got a head ache from driven it! i found a second hand one on here but it didnt fit it was a little short i guess it must have been from an auto or something ohh well then since i had the broken diff out i took it to a diff mechanic to see if he could fix it and he said it will be one of 2 things the crown and pinon(?) or some other bearing he said the other one was easy fix but he thought it was goin to be that crown bearing thing which it turned out to be.. he said its too hard to get a new one..

i was just wondering if i need to get a new center like a cusco 2 way center or what the go is or do i need to find another second hand diff that hopefully fits?

thanks

SImon

Because you left it for so long the crown wheel will be stuffed.

Your only option is to shell out $300-$350 for a s/h R32 GTST diff from a wrecker.

THEN you can shove the cusco or kaaz diff center in to that.

There's an old saying.. Poor man pays twice.

Do it properly the first time. Get a decent diff from a wrecker and go from there.

yeah ur right BHDave the were the same lengh but just when i bolted it to the car the new one was too short... oh well at least i know now! thanks! hopefully one pops up... do r33 gtst diffs fit 32 gtst?

thanks

    • Something to note, on an aftermarket turbo, it's quite possible to end up with the worst of both worlds, where on light throttle, there isn't enough force to open the BOV so you get small reversion and driveability issues, and with the venting to atmosphere, it dumps a lot of fuel on shifts. Realistically, dumping to atmosphere under power isn't a major driveability issues, compared to the issues of stalling from reversion. If you're getting up the throttle, then putting the clutch in, say on a shift up, but then don't release the clutch, yes, the engine can and will stall, but, just drive around it, and that's easy, let the clutch out in the next gear and the car rolling will keep it all running / going.who wants a hard hit of throttle and then to just let the motor idle anyway?   Main issue for driveability is blipping throttle and it wanting to stall, like when parking or trying to move in slow traffic.
    • As in they quoted one price, you mentioned the exhaust, and they promptly added $200 on top? Interesting.
    • Note that I'm not suggesting this is a great idea. Just saying that it is something that could be done to achieve a better outcome than the more shit ideas will provide.
    • I'd try removing it, connecting hoses and see if that helps. Depending on specs, it could actually be restricting the flow(it also might be helping).
    • Yes, that's a hybrid BOV. The adjustable spring load ones are about making teh pressure build up higher before venting, so you get a more agressive whoosh. That is not what I meant or what you want. By "restricting", I don't mean "keep it closed until the pressure is higher, then open it fully". I mean "open it as soon as it is required, but only have a small port area, so that the flow rate out of it is slowed down". The pressure will rise to be higher than a bigger ported BOV would provide, but it would do while it is venting. The idea is to slow down the rate at which the replacement eair is flowing past the AFM, to reduce the magnitude of the air flow signal peak, to reduce the amount of fuel that is added per revolution.
