hey guys

i have a 1996 R33 series 2 GTS (non turbo) & when i go out for a slide (drift) it tends to easily lock up both wheels turning right, but left nearly always singles..

is this because it is a LSD that has worn pratically too a OPEN wheeler?

i also know these came optional LSD from factory.. how would you pick it from looking under the car at the outside of the diff?

bolt pattern too the driveshafts, eg. 5 bolts or 3x2 bolts?

if it is a OPEN wheel diff, i have noticed people throw GTS-T diffs in, with the driveshafts..

what else is needed besides the Diff & Driveshafts?

if these could be answer, it would be greatly appreciated guys !!!

cheers

ive been thinking of putting a lsd in my r33 series 2 gts but i thought maybe not cause in wet not traction control and an lsd would be a bad mix also dont have the money atm but i am very interested in this too so if anyone could help Thanks in advance.

Also not trying to steal your thread rmsjdm but im here for the ride :P

jack car off ground, turn wheel on one side, if the other wheel turns in the same direction then you have an LSD, if its badly worn I guess it might not

GTS-t half shafts are 5 bolt and are thicker then GTS ones. My CV's wouldnt fit on a half shaft i grabbed out of a NA R33 when I needed to get mine going.

So, if i was to put GTS-T half shafts in, so i could run the LSD diff.. the halfshaft ends wouldnt fit into my GTS CV joints?

Great question. did you ever find the answer?

Im doing the lsd conversion atm. only thing im unaware of is will the 5 bolt shafts fit in my na wheel hub. due to it being 4stud. maybe its smaller? i will find out for sure next week.

    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
