my understanding of it all is u need the entire arse end from rotor to rotor the bodies are the same so the suspension just bolts in. im not sure if the tailshafts flanges are the same tho sumthing i never really checked... ne one correct me if im wrong

just outta curiousity wat are u doing to break shafts and wat sorta power are u pushing

OK so would it be beta to get the 33 gtr rear end? Its blown a couple at the dragest leavin the line it is manual so its expected to snap something! the lastest shaft and now the diff was done on the street only makin just over 400 bhp cant remember torque exactly tho but it makes a fair amount off that to!

Ye its the stock gear box manual with a jim berry special heavy duty clutch!!!!

I purchased a r33 gtr rear end complete today all gettin ready to go in now but i do have a question if anyone knows about this conversion....

HOw do u go about connectin the tailshaft to the diff as the gtr diff is 5 bolt and the gts-t is 4???? can u change the flage off the gts-tdiff to the gtrdiff or what happens????

i think u can just change the flange im not 100% sure on that but there all r200 diffs sum just long snout and sum short but i couldnt tell ya... if ya capable enough to pull the cradle out on ur own then u should be capable enough to check if that can be changed over... let us know neways and let me know how that gtr rear end goes... ive seen cars up here with semi slick launching one fully stock arse end and never breaking a drivehshaft.... car had bout 500hp tho

Ye im gonna find out shortly where i can change my original yoke(flange) over to the gtr one or not all depends on the spline inside if its the same or not or a can get a flange made up to suit the gtr diff but also fit my tailshaft depends on the length difference to the shaft!!! or i modify my tail shaft to fit the gtr diff few options i have will find out soon enough!!!

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
