Broken 32 Gtst Diff

[gt-t_r34]

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

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.

the second hand one you got will have been for a non abs model, your's has abs i assume

Not able to simply swap over the half shafts? or are the housing different?

urmm the diff mechanic said the non abs diff is no good.. and the non abs diff has no sensor in it either i think its the speed sensor!
