Nah rear diff is just more important lol

At least i didn't give up on mine!

Though Ants you will be glad to know i went over it for about 2 hours on Fridee and it has almost no rust. A little bit of surface rust on the front jack up points and a little bit in the drivers wheel arch. That's all i could find. After seing yours i was a little worried.....

not given up, will be transplanting my engine and transmission into a late model R33 GTR. . Rust on 32's are imminent. You should be worried.

Nah mines all g. Typical places for it there was nothing.

Rust is something that will happen on all cars. I'm lucky here in that Canberra is very dry so rust isn't really an issue here. And my car only very rarely gets in the rain so i'm not worried at all. Eventually ill be doing a bare metal restoration anyway and ill fix what little rust has come up then.

In the mean time ill convert the current stuff and paint it.

TBH in a few years 33's will have the same issue.

As will the 34's.

Rust on 32's are imminent. You should be worried.

Rust on all of them 32-34 (being so old) is imminent if they're being used regularly and haven't been maintained.

A 34 is 15-17 years old. My car was 15 years when I first bought it and has essentially been kept in storage for most of that time. I've seen 34R's driving around in worse condition now.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
