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.

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
