what ratio is the stagea front and rear diffs?

what ratio is a r32 gtr?

and a 33 gtr?

how can i tell them apart?

cause ive got a gtr sump modified and its got the gtr front diff in it still and i was wondering whether it was the same as the stagea one so it matches the diff one ;)

thanks

Brad

I thought Stageas where the same as GTS4's, and the autos are different.

Best to count the rotations of the drive shafts versus the input shaft. That will tell you the ratio and only take a few minutes.;)

rs4 rs4v 25gfour etc all seem to have 4.3

rs4s 260rs seem to have 4.1

we had a rs4s rear subframe that we put in our converted car, as far as we can see its identical to our gtr ones (electric hicas etc)

the 260 and the rs4s subframes are narrower than the normal non hicas subframe in the stagea tho, so you will want spacers on the wheels

hope that makes sence

okay have heard of rs4 and rs4v but what is an rs4s? Is that a manual version or something, ie the 1998 onwrds series 2? Just have never seen reference to an rs4s edition. What is different in the spec?

thanks saft.

PS any luck on the exhaust bits as yet?

ahha, cool on the rs4s spec. No dramas on the zorst. thanks for trying though dude. I'm in no rush, probably will get it sorted out at some stage, but if by chance you come across the bits required to complete the set, just PM me through SDU or something, I'm on there more than here obviously, but I'll find the PM here anyway. cheers and have a great break.

The build plate on my RS4V states a final drive of RC 40, which tells me it's an R200 @ 4.083:1. This data corresponds to what is printed on page 108 or the 2003 Nismo catalogue:

WGNC34 4WD ~'98/8;

RB25DET R200 (or R200V), 4.083:1

RB26DETT R200 4.111:1

from Aug 98 onwards;

RB25DET M/T R200V 4.111:1

RB25DET A/T R200 (or R200V) 4.083:1

RB26DETT R200 4.111:1

The shortest diff available was in the 4WD RB25DE '98/8~ at 4.363:1

The R32/33 GT-R's are listed at 4.111:1, while the R34 is a 3.545:1 !!!

well i pulled my stagea front diff apart and the diff crown wheel says LS48:11

and what i beleive is a gtr front diff (my enlarged sump) i checked the crown wheel and it said LS37:9

does this mean 4.11 for the stagea?

and 3.79 for the gtr? (might possibly be a sump from a gts-4 ??)

any ideas guys???

The first number is the number of teeth on the crown wheel. The second number is the number of teeth on the pinion, so..........

48 divided by 11 = 4.363636364

37 divided by 9 = 4.111111111

Hope that helps :(

It's interesting that you have a 4.3 front diff, what does your build plate say for the final drive ratio?

(it will be 'RC xx')

the build plate (blue one) says RC40 :P hope that helps

and also to SK thanks for that info mate it definetely helps :(

well 4.3 will be better for take off i suppose and possibly explains the bad fuel economy on stock rs4 stag's, possibly mine may have been changed

whats everyone elses build plate say for RC..????

cheers

    • Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts. 
    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
