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 don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
