Hey guys i've got a r32 gtst got a 2way coming in the next 2 or 3 week but want to weld my diff now. It's got a viscous lsd in it now can this diff be welded? If so where can I get it done in melbourne in s.e suburbs, or any 1 with a locker that wants to get rid of it or swap. Cheers

Welded diffs are not fine they are very dangerous!! not to mention uneven and two times faster tyre wear, tyre squeal at low speeds (cops will know you if they are behind you) of no benifet on the street. The list goes on.. Do it the proper way hey..

Don't be impatient. Wait 3 weeks for the new diff and do it properly

Welded diffs are evil. (and illegal)

U sure it's a viscous diff?

100% this is my 2nd r32 and in my old one I think it had a n/a skyline diff welded and that coped it all day every day and it held up good, I'm sick of it single some times only

anyone good with a welder should be able to do it. If you need the diff pulled out as well then look in VIC section for workshops and start calling. You will prob be looking at over $500+ so may not be worth it.

i got a weldy its fine kents who dont know how to drive cant handle it.

having said that i wouldnt recommend it for a daily but its certainly do able. as for tyre wear as if you dont get that from been lowered/camber anyway.

a welded diff and an idiot is dangerous

a welded diff and a driver with even half a brain is totally safe

this man speaks the truth.

    • What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.
    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
