What did you pay for it bubba? I just got a kazz in mine, $900 delivered. Came with bearings seals and new gasket. Were the Nismo half shafts any thicker?

A little over $1100 delivered I think (bought a heap of stuff from Nengun at the same time). The half shafts were just standard OEM but they were same length instead of offset length like the stockers I pulled out..

Hi mate,

i recently bought an OS giken 1.5way from greenline for my S1 33gts-t, and encountered the same problem as you. At first we thought we had been delivered the wrong diff, but checked and it was correct.

we ordered the appropriate new half shafts from nissan.

A small note explaining the half shaft requirements should be included in the online item description, would have saved me some time!

i think you can use 32gtr half shafts, but then you will need 32gtr rear drive shafts if im not mistaken.

cheers.

^^^ if they need GTR shafts then you need GTR outer hubs as the axles are thicker... i dont reckon this is the right solution.

i have not encountered this problem as all the NISMO diffs ive used come with half shafts (but the shafts are the same as many std ones). The OSGIKEN one in our race car just needed two short ones instead of the STD one long one short setup. I just pulled them out of a spare r33 diff i had lying around.

That's interesting, my Nismo diff used two long ones.

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
