GTR Diff Centre Widths - 32 vs 33 etc?

Hello guys,

I have had an ongoing saga trying to fit a GTR centre into my R200 housing in S13. I have purchased a used Nismo Gt Pro, to suit 32 gtr, and went to fit to my R200 housing. I went with GTR centre due to swapping to 32 GTR 6x1 CV shafts etc on the Silvia. It didn't fit in the housing, so I bought a 32 GTR complete diff (non active diff) and tried that. The Nismo centre still doesn't fit in either my S13 housing, OR the 32 GTR housing. A comparison photo shows that the Nismo is approx 15mm wider than the stock mechanical GTR centre. I am wondering if anyone can identify what is going on?

Could the Nismo be from something else? Could it be to replace a 32 GTR active centre rather than mechanical and is that centre usually wider? 

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Had a look at the Nismo list. They list the same LSD for the R32GTR, R33GTR R34GTR and all R34s. They do not list an LSD to replace the active diff (which is not to say they don't make one). Do you have a Nismo part number for the Nismo diff and how reliable is the fact that its a GTR LSD?

Thanks for looking that up. I will have to see if there is a part number on it anywhere, currently it's at a shop. The guy I bought it off said removed from 32 gtr, and it came with stub axles/half shafts which are 6x1, which makes it seem to be correct?

Some Z32s have 6 x 1 axles and a wider diff head. (beaten to the punch)

Are all the z32s r230? Or could be an NA z32 r200 size?

My r200 crown wheel fits on it fine which is what made me think it's not an r230/z32?

No I think only the twin turbos had 230

I think we may be onto a winner here.  I'm not Mr Nissan, but I'm sure his engineers decided it would be easier to have the same diff housing and driveshafts on all the Z32s regardless of whether they had the big diff centre or not.  Hence you get a wide R200 centre.....

So now the OP probably needs to find a Z32 housing and possibly shorter driveshafts.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
