Cheers. I'm a fan of your green thing, tough car. Ah no on the half shafts, I don't know who you've been talking to either, but there is no VLSD in a HR31, they are ALL clutch type mechanical (and mine is worn out, ) However some American Z31 turbos have a VLSD long nose, late in production.

At least we know what it was out of now Datsunreal Nice car floody. Love the older skyline coupes.

Yeah Kelvin's car is well trick. I think it has a later model Nissan rear with double wishbones and a shortnose R200 too.
The VLSD could possibly be from a Y31 luxobarge, F31 Leopard (guessing, but seems likely), or according to datsport a "limo"(Whatever that means, AFAIK president has a R230). I'd be thinking Y31 or late Z31 are the main possibilities, Y31 quite likely. Would mean its probably 3.7 or 3.9 ratio too.

No pics right now, but in the past two years I had a spun bearing, so its spent just on a year off the road and just recently received...
-R32 RB20DET motor, using old sensors and harness -Exedy sports tuff HD organic -Z32 AFM, GT-R injectors -S13 front uprights/hubs, ISC coilovers, 10kg/8kg springs -R33 GTS-T 296x30 4 pot brakes -17x9, 17x10 Work Meisters -Nistune ECU (programmable board in original ecu) -new brake, clutch cylinders -3" front/dump pipe with wastegate split -OEM electronic GT-Autospoiler front lip -Greddy style 11 Row oil cooler/relocator kit -HICAS removed
And some other bits and bobs. Nearly running again, needs clutch hose, brake bleed, tune. Will probably get a new front bumper skin and a front mount intercooler kit before it goes back on the road too.

Sorry long time between posts! Yep it was at the Shannons show. Looking like this now: Cheap longnose R200? Could definitely be interested, an open centre to weld up while I rebuild the LSD would be handy! Although ratio might be an issue as stock one is 4.3:1.

Interesting! I have NFI what I'd do for shafts (maybe Y31). Chuck me a pm about how much you want etc, could probably shim it to near locked (as the s13 guys do) and use as a spare
