Does the vehicle above have a lsd in the front housing .

If not where can i get one , and if it does what sort of hp will it handle and how do i stop on hard launch and further doen the track, the car giong to one side .

Who knows the best way and where to get a seriuosly tough manual box , are the later skyline 6 speeds any tougher?

Want to drag the vehicle and around 750 - 800 atw.

Any help appreciated

Front diff not an lsd...id change the rear diff before i looked at the front...both front and rear 1.5 way cusco diff are the way to go.

Pfitzner manual box is ideal if its purely a track car...otherwise if it sees street use then id lean towards a 5 speed OS giken gearset with input shaft.

Thank's for your suggestions, i was told that the front diff is wshy the car pulls hard to one side when going down the strip, it needs to be LSD.

Cusco ? Who or where do i get these?

Why the rear first?

I have had no problems with car pulling hard other than torque steering...easily controlled with steering input...

any jap supplier wiil do for a diff

The car going hard to one side sound more like a suspension problem or handling

It might even be worth check the condition of the std open diff as i killed one at the drags not that long ago (tore it to pieces not pretty)

Its not subframe movement?

 

My bushes have recently got a little sloppy, I noticed the subframe pulling forward on the dyno.

 

Plant the foot and I find it steers the car slightly.

Nah , all little off track ( pardon the pund ) every thing you guys have mentioned is A OK

. The car definetly pulls to the right on a hard launch , and as i increase the hp it's going to do this even more . I believe it's to do with the front diff not bieng LSD. I am going to change it.

What does 1.5 and or 2 mean, in regards to the diff .?

1 way diff only locks up under acceleration. 2 way locks up under acceleration, and decelleration. 1.5 fully locks up under acceleration and partially locks up under decceleration.

if you are going to put 800kw to the ground I would consider possibly a 6 speed sequential hollinger box.

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
