What did you put in it Kat?

And does it go.....  clunk de clunk de clunk?  I hate that.

Mine is the V-spec and from what I can see it's a pain to put a 'normal' diff back in but looks like I have no choice with what I do with the car.

Is there an option other than to a 1.5 now? Is there a tru-track available anyone?

I personally have not done my diffs to confirm or deny, though that is what i will be doing. 

@Piggaz Should be able to answer that for you if he is nice enough....

The GT PRO is quite cranky with the Nismo oil it comes with. I switched to the OSG 80W-250 and it shuts it up by 85%. This was with solid alloy diff bushes but I've ditched them and put some Nismo rubber bushes in. Haven't driven the car yet but it should be a lot better again.

I think you can get quafe for the rear as well. It also might be worth checking that the fluid is topped up for the rear diff. Right side of  the boot from memory.

Or you could sell it back to me.... :P

Like Piggas says.  Diff goes clunkety clunk even on the lowest setting.  Change the oil and it becomes liveable.

Should I try and swap the current Nismo end caps with someone for stock GT-R ones?

 

I'm leaning that way.

 

What do you think?

I have a brand new set in packaging if you wish to swap. A bit of money your way too.

And thanks for the lead Anfanee.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
