Nissan R200 Lsd Clutch Plates-r32 Gtr

[MYRB30]

Hi guys,

I have a R32 GTR diff here that I want to replace the damaged friction discs and plates in. Are they available in Australia? Genuine or non-genuine?

Thanks.

Depending on what LSD you have try this:

would it be better to re pack the clutch packs or buy an aftermarket 2 way like a kaaz?

i got quoted (roughly) $300ish for the clutch packs and $250 for install as they wont let customers install it themselves

intended use is for drifting, so im curious if this re packing is able to hold up to the abuse or will it start to open wheel after a while

coz if thats the case a kaaz is cheap enough these days to buy brand new

I know someone who tried a stock R32 GTR diff in a drift car and it open wheeled at the worst times. They don't have a very agressive ramp angle which means it doesn't lock that much under acceleration. I've always wondered how a stock GTR diff would go if U ground the angled bit that the pin pushes against to a more aggresive 'wedge'. I dunno wat either are called lol.

[eXquiSit]

yea...when i was taking the diff out of the car i used a breaker and pry bar and it felt so so loose!

thats y im curious to see if repacking it with more clutches would make it a tighter 2 way

or perhaps goin aftermarket lsd

You just shim it mate, to tighten it goto Nissan order some shims, the part numbers are all over the net. And just put em in, it's real easy

ive driven on shimmed vicous r200s before...they were terrible and singe spin half way through the day!

I guess it depends on what the total preload of the shims are. My experience with shimmed diffs is great.

[eXquiSit]

ah how it was done was ripping apart 2 diffs and getting the 2 shims from the spare centre and doubling up the shims on both sides

big difference between shim and a proper 2 way but im wondering if repacking clutch plates is more effective

Im looking for a place to buy replacement parts for my R200 LSD also. Anyone had any luck?

Clearly it wasn't done right

Racepace re-shimmed & plated my diff, almost to Nismo spec (slightly different i was told)... was what 6 years ago now.

I've done maybe 40 passes @ the drags on it, as well as a lot of serious curry in general use with the 255 RE001s i have.

After 10,000-15,000km's it's still exactly as tight same as it was the day i picked it up, turns both wheels without fail every time

[Deano 1]

The r200 in the gtr is same as the r200 in a s13 or r33 am I right???

[eXquiSit]

R31Nismoid: hey mate... do you think they are as strong/effective/etc as a proper 2 way though?

the repacks i drove were following instructions off this site

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Di...Gt-t164288.html

this wasnt repacked like nismo plates but the 2 outer shims making it virtually a locker

now gtr repacking/reshimming maybe different and thus making it more effective than doing it to the other r200s

[Godzilla32]

So can i use the Nismo rebuild kit in my stock R200 gtr diff? I need to buy a rebuild kit somewhere. Can anyone help?

Well a HR31 long nose is a 2-way mech locker, just really weak.

So from my experience with the HR31 R200, yes they are just as good.

[eXquiSit]

R31Nismoid: ah i see... the r32 diffs are mechanical lsds also from my understanding (correct me if im wrong) so repacking the shims may work

the experiences i have had with reshims came from viscous lsds so there would be a difference i think

but good to know it may be effective to repack the shims!

[Godzilla32]

So no one knows where I can buy a rebuild kit?
