Hey guys,

Have recently got a tear in one of the steering rack boots in my R32 gts-t, and have been looking around Perth for some to no avail.

I know there is a universal option but I'd prefer to leave that as a last resort, and if possible get some made for the car.

Obviously Nissan could get some in for me but also charge out the ass for it. Also checked Coventry's and possibly Repco? (I forget).

So basically wondering if anyone knows where in Perth or on the www I can get some at a reasonable price, or if they are the same as those off another car, possibly S13's?

Thanks in advance. thumbsup.gif

sorry to hijack thread but does anyone know where to get the boot from the gearbox to gear stick and the square boot thats bolted to the floor around the gearstick on a rb26. both of mine have split and got a oil leak :angry:

Why would you not go the universal option? I recently changed mine to universal boots (aproximatly $5 each from Veale auto Parts)might take an extra 2-3 mins of triming each at the most.

worth it in My humble opinion :)

^^thats what i did,veales in redcliffe havem

pretty sure nissan would be the only way to get a new one. maybe try just jap? either that or find a good second hand one, they usually last a long time.

    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
