was worried that was the reason. measured axles today and they are 25" and 25.5". hoping maybe i bought wrong combo. passenger side is too short and driver side is too long. unfortunately switching them didnt help me at all

Trying to stick with the 32 spline to handle my abusive nature and idiocy. Have snapped 3 or so DSS 600hp axles inside the wheel hub over past couple years. 2 while drifting and one from a 2nd gear clutch drop (my own idiocy).
Was hopeful that with the Weir chromoly diff stubs and q45/z32 axle and hub combo I could have minimal issues with rear drivetrain. Talking with the guy I bought the axles from says its possible he just grabbed the wrong pair. According to the internet (hate when it comes to that) I need 27" and 24" axles for proper fit. Otherwise I will have an OS Giken 1.5 diff in S13 R200 with 5 and 6 bolt OEM stubs, and Weir 6 bolt stubs up for trade or sale as I will have to switch over to the GTR diff

Either that or just go full spool from Weir and just try to enjoy the wheel chirp when driving in town

Question
So I own a 1992 rhd silvia s13 which comes with 5 bolt rear axles/output shafts and a jdm vlsd diff. The vsld is toast and I have a spare US s13 differential that has the US 3x2 output stubs on it. I have a welded diff out of a us 240sx that has 3x2 output shafts that I would like to install. Is it possible for me to install the us 240sx welded diff and use the jdm 5 bolt axle stubs with the 5 bolt axles? |

I got some spooky noises coming from my rear end. Ordered the Villains stubs today. Hopefully my rear end holds together for NissanFest.

As a side note, from my looking, it would seem that the physically strongest Nissan rear diff combo would be Z32 R230 diff, DSS 300M output shafts, Z34 axles, and Z32TT or Q45 hubs. The weak link is then the axles, which can be upgraded via DSS. Of course there are other options like Ford 9" etc.

so i've got the villains stubs, z33 axles, and 10mm gk tech axle spacers. i think 15mm spacers would actually be perfect, but the axel boot already slightly rubs the ruca (due to having pbm drop knuckles) and my guess is that extra 5mm would totally destroy them. anyone know of any rucas with more clearance than pbm?
if someone would just make some stub shafts that were 15mm longer that'd make things a whole lot more convenient...

Anyone have feed back of the fitment of a 350z/diff and Z axles in a 240sx subframe? I'm ready to finish making my S13 subframe now that i found an easy to obtain 3.692 (350z style) R&P to replace my Aramada (2 bolt rear cover) 3.133. During test fitting (on the work bench) it seemed like the axles would fit although close to full compression. I will be running 0 camber and moderatley lowered. Looking to beef of the rear on the Kswap and better match my CD009 before I nuke an axle like I did with my lower powered KAT.

Otherwise you might be best off having the z33 stubs shortened a bit to account for the diff being physically wider. Good job on mounting the z33 diff the right way in the s13 subframe. Do you remember which year Armadas have the 2 bolt rear covers? That makes mounting them to the s13 subframe a lot easier. |

So I'm putting in a S14 rear end in my R32 with the complete rear S14 GKTech kit as well. I'm trying to decide on a diff/rear axle combination that would suffice. I'm considering doing a R200 with a 2-way, Villians adapter hubs and then lost as far as there.
Anyone go down this road or even just a S14 person want to chime in if you have a similar setup or want to talk me into a different direction? |

Villains is the easy route. Only reason I'm going to the newer 350z r200 is cause of the wider range of ratios 3.133 to 4.6.

I enjoy easy routes. I'm thinking with a V8, I'd want to be in the higher 4.xx's as far as the ratio so I'm considering R200, 2-way, Villians adapters and slap in Z33 axles. Does this sound like the best route?

Currently, it's the factory R32 transmission. Eventually, it'll be 1J/CD009 when that setup pops which I assume will be this season at some point knowing how unreliable the RB20DET's are.

Older nissan trannys like KA/SR/RB/VG stick with the 240sx diff. With the CD00x trannies ratios get shorter, which is why I want a 3.692 for my turbo K24A2 with a CD001.

I hope not, I still can extend my LCAs 6mm and have a fender roller coming. Ill run it a is until I break something. Shortening the stubs wont get me alot as I need to retain the ABS for a speed reading. Max I could cut out of the stub and retain ABS is 8mm maybe 12mm if i trim the diffcover where it holds the sensor or get bolts with lower profile heads. Then hope the bolts don't affect the ABS sensor by being to close.
Good thing I've noticed when replacing the passenger axle after accidently botching the threads, is that the plate that retains the grease and limits the axle will stretch a bit. It's normally flat but the axle stub has recess that allows it to stretch maybe 10mm, when I pulled my axle it was stretched about 6mm from just being jacked up to test suspension travel. not my diff but you can see there is not muck room to play with. |

Hi all,
Recently purchased an R200 (oem s14?) diff for my car and will be running 350Z axles with it. I already have the output shaft adapters however my question comes to the bushings. Can I just purchase regular SPL s14 bushings or would I need to buy the 350z conversion bushings (example gktech conversion bushings). Thanks for the help in advance. |
