Why would the vlt manual box affect the diff ratio

VLt manuals used a diff ratio of 3.45 which is alot easier for me to source the diff.

i could use the r33 box it would mean i would have to use a 4cyl commodore or pintara diff which is pretty pointless.

If you don't like em, wtf are you doing on this forum

what the hell you on about?.

the sig is just humour. :jk:

PS; Im building a rb30det so this forum will come in handy for me, that is if you don't mind me being here. :)

PSS: i'm here to share info not to bitch about what car is better.

shouldnt have to explain myself everytime........

The VLT diffs will fall apart around 200rwkw unless strengthened, whereas the R33 should be good for 300rwkw or so. The old Borg Warner is a bit of a dog of a diff. Have to remember VLT are live axel, and Skylines are IRS which makes it difficult to fit.

Depends what is easiest/cheapest for you.

I don't have the patience to fit a skyline irs rear end.

looks like the 28 spline borg warner centre will be the go with 3.45 gears.

    • Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)
    • Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.
    • You'd really have to pull it apart further to know, it least you can be confident that the one heading to the back is not connected any more. There was once a ground on the shifter seal mount too, your head unit issue could be that simple
    • Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit. 
    • Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
