Hey all

looking at diffs for my r33 gtst series 2 track car.

The car is mainly for 200 meter runs. But also mucking around at drift stuff.

So im after grip and heavy acceleration!

Whats the ratio of the standard diff?

What would you recommend 1.5, 2way etc?

And what ratios for flat out acceleration?

Plus strength

cheers

Yes keep the housing.

If you get a Cusco one you can adjust it all the way from 2 way to 1 way according to your preference but most people seem to go for Nismo. Or you can get a 2nd hand GTR diff but then you have to make changes to suit the 6 x 1 bolt pattern.

Hey guys had a 2-way in my 32 and kinda got over the clunks/jerks and now looking to put the power to both wheels in the 33..

I'm unsure what to do with a stock auto diff.. do I still have 1, 1.5 way options in the ratios the auto uses?

Also it will have a shift kitted box with 250+, so I'm guessing a shimmed diff wont like that power for long. Trying to maintain good drive aswell as being able to have both wheels putting power down.

1/4 mile and cruising only.

sounds like your ideal diff would be helical. But that's another kettle of fish finding one. They did come in late model R34 manual turbos but rare as f**king hens teeth and wreckers wouldn't know one if it hit them in the head.

/\ ive found a S15 helical 4.08, which is a swap over using s15 6-bolt shafts also..?

I did that to my R32. Put it into R32 housing with R33/4 4.11 gears and S14 half shafts and driveshafts. It's a real bitsa, but it works. The only downside will be if I start finding the strength limits of the 3x2 bolt CVs.

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      By MBS206 · Posted

      What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!

      Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !

      Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3

      It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
