Anteater - Once you go round a corner and you have jumped on it earlier than you ever have and you have somehow popped out the other side without putting it into a pole, you'll laugh then kick yourself for not doing it years ago.... Let alone the rear :D

Sweet I'm keen. I'm hoping to go out on track to see how this silly car handles with standard diff then go back with quaife to really feel the diff (pun intended).........if I don't wrap the car around a pole first :D

Heya guys,

Anyone looked into jamming an R34 GTR helical centre into a 32GTR housing?

I'll be throwing some 4.4s in soon and wondering if I should move from the Nismo 2way (that has me a little unsettled into corners) to a helical.

Only problem with helical is lifting a wheel and having no drive, but if I upgrade I might just have to stop using inside ripple strips to powerslide the car into line ;)

Mark :)

Palmside have it stitched here in Australia. It's absurd Quaife don't have an official distributor in Australia - shipping from the South Island is stupid. Quaife have never responded to any of my requests to open up a trade account for the record. I'd shop in the States. I've never understood why Quaife are cheaper in the US than the UK. Bigger market blah blah but seriously it still makes no sense.

Lol I know that feeling having performance parts under the desk.

Yeah, that is BS re: price rise.

I really don't want to fork out almost $2K just for a diff when they are being sold for almost half that price in the states.

Just waiting upon some more diff bushes and new diff bearings and then will get it installed.

Couldn't you just buy this through an importer and save a few hundred bucks?

Is the R33 diffs the same as the R32?

I could but I will see what else is available in Oz first.

I already have the rear diff just need the front.

Am in no rush to get it done though.

I believe that R33 GTR diffs are the same ratio as R32 GTR

Oh, so paying $160 to get a diff shipped from USA to Aus isn't an arm and leg?

Add another $20-$30 from UK to that (based on SVS and not paying VAT)

Not really... I got quoted the same to get a bearing the size of a 50c piece shipped from the USA to Aus.

That aside, Powertune seems ok price wise, $1900 Kiwi definitely a rip off.

Hi guys. Should have some feedback on this soon. I've run a Quaife in the front for a couple of years and was waiting for a rear to become available.

Bought the rear early this year and it will be replacing a Nismo GT Pro - so will be interesting comparison.

It's in the car and fitted - but am also doing E85 conversion so will be another 3-4weeks before I drive it I think.

They require the later halfshafts that are. 31 spline and measure 32mm diameter.

They should be more 'aggressive' than the standard helical diffs in Nissans but of course without the low speed clunking and binding of a clutch type diff.

Looking forward to trying it

    • He obviously had his reason for flipping you off. I wonder what it was...
    • Thats why I stay far, far away from Eastwood. only go there if I wanna eat Korean food 
    • I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal
    • HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.
    • I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
