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.

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
