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

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
