Installing Quaife Lsd Front Differential Into R32 Gtr.......

I purchased and am awaiting a Quaife LSD Front Differential for an R32 GTR oil pan. Quaife only sells the LSD Front Diff for an R33 or R34. What is the reasoning for this? Does anything need to be trimmed/modified for installation into an R32 GTR oil pan? Or is this a typo and will bolt right in? Thanks all......

Day to day driving you don't even know you have a aftermarket diff installed. There is no clunking, banging of harshness of ANY kind (it's gears, not plates like a "normal" diff).... That is until you put your foot down around a corner and you have all this front end grip that you never had before.

A GTR engine should not go back in without one of these installed, period. I only wish I did it 7 years ago instead of 2. The best mod and should be one of the first done, V spec or not!

Piggaz - are they only useful once you get up a certain power level? My 32 has 300awkw and it doesnt feel like i have front end grip issues, but maybe i just dont know what i'm missing? Or to ask the question another way, when are they worthwhile, and when are they poor value for the cost?

You mean power induced understeer, right? At the moment i'm balancing that with an ATTESSA tweaker, but i'm guessing i would be able to push more power to the front in the corner and therefore use more power overall, if i had a front LSD?

Never driven my car under 380 kw with the front diff in. That was the run in tune. However, I think it's a case of not knowing what you're missing. I thought the same thing...until I got it in there.

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
