Hey guys,

I’ve searched and searched, but nothing has come up to help with what drive shafts to use with my rb26 conversion.

Currently they are just the n/a items, which I doubt would last an hour when the car gets back on the road.

The car is an R32 gts, and I’ll be using some form of a 2-way diff when I can find one.

Any help would be great.

Josh, without the items in front of me I couldn't be absolutely certain, but some are 6 bolt flanges and some are 5 bolt for the diff. If you want the GTR shafts you may also need the flanges. Go cruise a wreckers and fish for some info as well. Look at the shafts side by side. Use a tape measure too. I did read of a guy who changed the lot in his 32 to GTR items...diff, axles, hubs etc but again I'm sketchy on the exact detail.

Cheers, thanks for your help guys. As the car was an N/A it's still 4 stud, so changing it all to GTR items while doing the 5 stud conversion could work well.

Does any one know how much work is needed to fit in a complete rear GTR diff?, not just the GTR diff center into a Gtst diff case.

Thanks, Josh.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
