As the title says, can anyone tell me if R32 GTR and R33 GTR driveshafts are the same?

I have quite a few spares from our R33 GTR race car (now wrecked) and am now building an R32GTR, and would like to know what parts I should keep and what to get rid of..

Thanks in advance

Paul

R32 & R33 use the same shafts..

Nissan FAST part number for:

R32 RH front drive shaft - 39100-23U00.

R33 RH front drive shaft - 39100-23U00.

I cant check the active diff shafts as i dont have fast on the mac.

same shafts but different 1/2 shafts. Best GTR 1/2 shaft/diff set-up is 93-94 R32 or R33 non v-spec. thicker 1/2 shafts and larger hemisphere.

people cannot believe my drag car is still running the same stuff that was bolted in by Mr Datsun back in 93.

Good thinking will check on FAST tonight.

Cheers Paul as well, I sent you a PM too the other day.

Thanks guys..

I know the R33 V-Spec are different to the non V-spec as I have them both on the ground side by side. The V-spec has a larger flange diameter. The wrecked race car was a "normal" spec R33 GTR when we got it but I converted it to V-spec, leaving us with some spare "normal" type shafts.

I was pretty sure the fronts were the same..from R33 to R32

It was really the rears I wasn't sure of, I thought the R33 may have been longer since the R33 had a fair bit wider rear track and I don't have any R32 ones to compare with?

Cheers

Paul

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
