hey guys im looking to replace my diff on my s15 ive done the 26 conversion with 25 box, i was wondering what diff is a direct replacement? would gtr diff gears fit in? i wanna make it a 4.1 or a 4.3?

S15 uses R200 rear diff like GTR, GTSt etc. One big difference is that the S15 uses a single sensor on the pinion for rear ABS.....the rotor is mounted on the pinion shaft and the pick-up is mounted on the nose of the diff, just behind the tailshaft attachment. Essentially the S15 ABS is a three channel system, while GTR is 4 channel (GTR has individual sensors for each wheel). What this means is that you can't just bolt a GTR diff into an S15 without disabling the ABS. It may be that a GTR CWP will fit an S15 diff housing but the GTR pinion probably won't have the ability to mount the S15 ABS rotor (although it might be possible to modify the pinion to do so).

I tohught the GTR R33 had the same setup with threechannels unlike the four with the R34.. I am removing the ABS setup in my S15 for my RB26DETT conversion.

As far as I'm aware R33 GTR uses 4 channel ABS like R32 (as does R34 GTR). The main difference between R32 GTR and R33 is the active LSD.

In fact I just checked in FAST and there's no sensor in the nose of the diff like found in S15.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
