Hey guys I just fitted a LSD to my vlrb25det which I'm running the r33 box. Currently I'm running 345 ratio in my diff. What would be the best diff ratio to run with the rb25 and r33 box

What would be the best ratio for acceleration off the mark

R33's have 4.11:1 but they rev at around 3,500 rpm @ 110 km/h.

Not a daily driven car so not a huge issue

The highest ratio you can get for a stock VL BW78 is 4.11:1, from a Nissan Pintara. This will give you the greatest acceleration, but as said, you will high a high engine cruising speed.

30-03-12, 12:52 GMT+10#12 I had the stock 3.45's with 230rwkw and was perfect wouldnt want the gears any shorter , my vote leave it as is. (this was rb30et but) though I still feel the same as if it was the 25, mate had 25 with 4.11's and bearly any time in gear
