Hi guys, I have serious trouble getting up driveways and it's been confirmed now that only one week is spinning :P

what are my options, do I get this one rebuilt, second hand R34GTT, I also heard an S15 diff is the same, what about a R34 GTR rear diff?

how much better is a 1.5 turn, and is it a worthy upgrade, i don't do any drifting or anything like that?

thanks for your help

cheers

chris

I wouldn't say it's, farked, torsen diffs (in S15/R34 GT-t) do that when there's one wheel in the air.

yup my car does it as well. I believe its normal for a stock r34 gt-t diff. Mine still spins up two wheels with both wheels on the road. if it doesnt spin both wheels when they are both on the road then your lsd is fcked.

i think its just an issue with the limited suspension travel.

I can also confirm the driveway thing. It's a catch 22. You set your shocks to soft and then you drag your body kit.

On the topic of interchanging centers, I have a cusco 2 way for an S13 R200. Is it true this will fit my R34 housing?

ewww weldies!

once you go torsen or mechanical, you won't like weldies anymore... !

and yes like I said before, you're diff isn't stuffed, it's a marvellous diff, heaps better than the junk in R33 R32 GTS-ts

Put it on the track and you'll know what I mean when you hop into a R33 with a VLSD

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
