I have an r32 gtst with a pinion seal that is beginning to leak. It has a stock diff and I believe that means it is an r200 short nose. However I am hesitant on replacing the seal and leaving the original crush sleeve, I don’t want to do this twice. Unfortunately I can only find crush sleeves labeled as a GTR part, not a GTST. 
 

so, is the factory diff an r200 just like the GTR, or even an s13? Do they share the same crush sleeve? The same seals? Same torque specs? I know the internals are different, and the output shafts are 3x2 instead of 5x1. 
 

I have no interest in swapping diffs. Trying my best to make the stock stuff work

GTRs use the same 4.11 CW&P set in the same basic case, so it is very likely that the pinion shaft crush tube is the same part, but I couldn't promise you. They're only like $40 or something, so just get one.

But now I look at your original post.....you're doing work on the original viscous diff? You really must not car about how the car drives. They are a piece of shit. Prime opportunity to put a proper centre in it, while you have it open and apart.

Quite the contrary. I enjoy how the car runs the way it was built to run and I don’t have any interest in ruining that with some noisy aftermarket ring and pinion. It still locks up and hasn’t given me a bit of trouble. Seems like staying stock is the best way to keep these cars on the road. 
 

Thankyou for the info on the crush sleeve. I will get one and report back after I give it a shot.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
