M35: Diff Ratio

[zei20l]

So i want to get an LSD diff for the rear. anyone know what the ratio is for them? im hoping (like the V35 guys http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Au...f-t279164.html) that there might be something else interchangable. if i start increasing power, i want to be able to put it to the ground properly..........

According to the brochure...

3.133 for the Turbo AWD and the 3.0 RWD.

3.538 for the 2.5 NA AWD

4.363 for the 2.5 NA RWD (it's only a 4 speed as well).

2WD 5spd auto navara?

2009 V6 pathfinder?

apparently 3L and 2.5L V35s, which contradicts what it is in V35 thread above! here are specs: http://www.infinitig35.net/Sedans/Specs/

IM havent had any VQ25DET diffs on there. i was hoping i could pick a whole one up and just swap it over. but looks like i might be pulling one apart.

I did see one a few weeks ago but shipping... it would be cheaper to drop a cucso 1.5 or 2way in the back wouldnt it? Its only the centre to ship then, and a better one too.

[zei20l]

yeah but i dont wanna pay $1200+ for a centre when i can get a diff for under $1k delivered. i dont need a mechanical diff, just a viscous coupling is enough

[Daleo]

Isn't the diff just an r200 Shortnose?

All you should need is a LSD centre, swap your ring gear over and set backlash.

Lots of options for a donor centre, r32, r33, r34, s13, s14, s15...

I'm pretty sure the only IRS in recent times that's any different is Z33 300ZX; which is r230 diff.

Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, it's happened before...

[zei20l]

the S15 diff would probably be the best of them all ........ damn and i had a spare a few years back. eugene you still got my old diff??

[Angus Smart]

so i can possibly put in the spare gtr diff i have at home??

[zei20l]

not the whole diff, like daleo said, just the 'LSD' part of it in the centre. you cant change the gearing as it will not match the front diff

[Angus Smart]

yee i figured this. ratios being different and all..

interesting! i might hang onto it then! its already in pieces after me investigating it when it was ment to be aftermarket

[zei20l]

then half the work is done for you! haha the GTR viscous centre (if its a NUR or something it might be mechanical???) will be strong too!

[Angus Smart]

nar only from a 32gtr.. just a stocky.

[zei20l]

still probably better than your open wheeler! unless yours has an LSD already??

[Angus Smart]

dont think it has.. i can stall it and it spins one wheel eventually i think.. will have to get someone to check next time i do it

[zei20l]

ARXs has LSDs and i think RS Vs did too. RX didnt, and RS MAY have been an option........
