Are you taking the diff out yourself? At the end of a rebuild you might be looking at 2 grand (they'll preset your breaking load at where you ask them), or you could look at getting a kaas 1.5way for about 1350 and redoing bearings and seals for about the same. I'm considering my options with this issue myself at the moment, have you got your own garage facilities do do your own work?

Yer i do have access to a workshop with tools at work, and yer i do my own work, but would prefer to get a someone who does diffs everyday, as they are easy to screw up the distances for the crwon wheel and pinion gears, buy yer i'd take it out my self ang give it to them to do....

wow, i agree, $2k seems way to expensive........... i gave option 1 garage a call and they said starting at $300 for replacing the clutch packs and.. but without pulling it apart could be more....

when i was down at superlap the other weekend, i was speaking to a chik down there who ran a gearbox and diff overhal workshop in sydney, and she told me $250 and they replace the clutchpacks with nismo ones, and tighten them to what ever specs u wanted.....

so i was wondering if anyone up here in brissie was like that.............

it's not going to cost 2 grand for a shim adjustment (more like 200), but my costing is based on what I wanted for my car, which includes some remachining of components, new bearings and seals etc. Give the guy a call, he's happy to let you know your options. There are probably more diff shops around too but no one seems to have posted any up...

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
