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.

    • Yeah I also looked at Plazmaman, but, it ended up alot  cheaper getting black ones through EFI when you also added in the delivery cost
    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
