I bought one r32 gtr rear diff and I don't know if it is stock or not.

I try to turn one wheel and my friend to hang the other wheel and it is imposible!!!!

I try to put off the wheel and I put a big screwdriver in the brakedisc to stop at the caliper... I try with first gear to run a little... ok it turns only the other wheel but after 1min the screwdriver gone...

My problem is that in every turn with first gear (low mph) the car do a bad noise and feel! A "duk-duk-duk-duk" and a feel that the car at the rear have a bigggg problem!!

Anyone who can help me?

My car is silvia!

Lol, I do not recommend you ever put a screw driver there to see if it will "unlock" the diff.

I have a standard R33 GTR diff and it locks as above, both wheels turn at once not one at a time.

My problem is that in every turn with first gear (low mph) the car do a bad noise and feel! A "duk-duk-duk-duk" and a feel that the car at the rear have a bigggg problem!!

I had my diff loosened due to this, my car used to do it and it still does a little, the housing of my diff was machined to loosen the preload to prevent this, it used to make a loud clunking sound on tight corners.

You may have a diff that someone has shimmed tighter so it locks more, an aftermarket centre in your diff, OR someone welded the diff inside (as per previous posts).

A diff specialist can probably help you reduce the preload a little to prevent the bad noise, the diff probably has a lot of preload, which is fine for a track, not so good on the street. OR someone has welded it...

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
