Been thinking that I need to change the diff in the car now as the R230 feels a bit long geared for the V8, just been looking at the numbers.

With 9000rpm limit, in gear speeds are:

56 / 93 / 137 / 179 / 234!!!!

Obviously the 5th one is theoretical.

 

Going for the 4.1 gives

50 / 84 / 123 / 161 / 214

 

Hoping I can maybe find a 4.4, any ideas?

Fook me that some speeds. Well on your way by 3rd :eek:

 

Apart from that i dont have a clue :rofl:

id be to scared to drive it at those speeds lol

can we have a video proving it?:p

 

dan.;)

even a shorter ratio than that i think. Can you not change the diff gear instead to a custom one? thats well long ratio bloody helll lol

Skyline R32 GTST uses a 4.36 R200 diff

Cheers, thought the GTST was a 4.1 too.

Looking into the possibility of the R32GTR diff as it has 6 bolt flanges like the R230 and is supposed to be a stronger unit. It's only a 4.1 though. May just try it first and see how it feels.

Jesus john that's alot of mph in 5th :rofl:

 

I think we did the maths on mine and it worked out about 215mph in 5th

Cheers, thought the GTST was a 4.1 too.

R33 GTSt is a 4.1 , the R32 is the 4.36 in GTST form

a bit off topic john but do you still have the manual conversion for sale?

Yes mate, give me a buzz on 07843 368882
