V-Spec Diff Swap 4Wd Problem

Michael, looks like I owe you a round. I rotated the sensors and ran around the block where the error used to show in first 100 meters.

Now I need to change the connector on the old sensors and the reinstall.

Thanks!

So checked the resistance on the sensors. R33 were 1.3k ohm and the R32 were 2.1k ohm. So I opted to make some 90 degree adapter plates instead of swapping the connector to put the R32 ones in.

Fingers crossed that this finally sorted it out.

Also the bolt thread are in the A-LSD half shafts where the non are in the CV

Most people would just put the diff in with the sensors that came with it so it probably hasn't been an issue yet :/

Yeah my A-LSD stopped working once I put the LSD up front, which I found out at SMSP-S last year :(

Yeah that'd be why - most just swap the entire diff.

lol - Is there ANYONE with a v-spec who hasn't gone through that agonising experience? :D

Well I can confirm that the sensors have sorted out my dramas. The car ran all day Saturday at the Nulon nationals without a single Attesa error. All the rear 1.5 way goodness really helped on the wet Skidpan.

Yup changed my half shafts cause the alsd diff is so much wider.

What shafts did you end up using? Did you get non v-spec R33 ones. I'm just about to go through this conversion now. I have an R32 GTR diff that I am installing

Yup, ended up picking up some non V-Spec R33 GTR shafts and chucking the V-Spec ones.

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
