205/50/15s bubble a good bit on my 6.5" wheels, I couldn't imagine what 225s would look like.
Road Course AND Karting?? Hmmmmm
I just pulled a 70A out of an 02 G20 at the junkyard. I'll see if I can get back up there and get you a pic of the VIN plate.

Looks rusty to me. I'd imagine there's a bit of a mess hiding behind the side skirts.

Ran into more fitment issues. Diff is back at the machine shop and I am waiting to hear from them.
I am having fitment issues in the trans case due to the way the diff was machined. I'm taking it to my machinist tomorrow to hopefully have it fixed and complete a final test fit. I had the same is...

I am replacing both diff bearings and will provide pictures and an overview of shimming the diff.

I suggest anyone considering buying one of these diffs go ahead and orde...

Thanks for the tip on that bearing! I'm gonna order it from them and see how it goes. The dealer wants $216 for it.
Unfortunately, the dealer also told me that the speedo drive gear and retainer...
The bearing needed is specific to the VLSD trans. Post 209 shows the part number on the actual bearing. I removed it from a 1993 SE-R transmission. Nissan's part number for this bearing is 31408-31...
It's simple to remove the axle and makes the PS pump replacement easy as hell. You can spend the 10 minutes it takes to pull the axle and save yourself a ton of aggravation and cursing, or you can ...
