HI just wanting to no if a vn sedan diff with fit into a vl sedan, complete disk to disk or do you have to do a bracket change cheers thanks for advice

Will bolt straight up... Will need disk handbrake cable though. And you will gain 2 inchs in track as the VN diff is longer than VL diff which will make fitting wheels other than stockos on... Do a search, its been mentioned many times.

yep 20mm wider each side.

Just put the VN discs on the VL housing.

just look for a cheap VL V8 diff... Trading post has them for dirt cheap all the time

how cheap is dirt cheap?

less than $400... Which is what turbo diffs should be worth...

is that in good condition or a munted one?

if your car is loward it wont fit your tyres will rub even with 14s my mate tried it in a vk

VL V8 diffs can be gotten as low as 150(I know I got one) a VN diff I got for 200 with LSD, which I then swapped over with my VL V8 diff cos it was single...

WHATS DIFFERENCE FROM turbo diff to v8 one??? or they same ****???

same

yer? wicked, y do ppl charge 400-500 bucks more for a turbo one??? is it just the name?? if thats soo what the ****!! lol

They are pretty much the same but the V8 has 3.08 ratio and the turbo has 3.45 ratio.

3.08 gears arent the best... 3.45 in the turbo diff are far better, and also because most people dont understand much about the V8 diffs... but because it is a "TURBO" diff it is worth millions...

yer fully turbo diff u mean lol.. how hard is it, if i bought a v8 diff, to change the 3.08 gears to 3.45's or even 3.9's?? do it urself?, or something an experienced person should do. on a hoist i mean, as i have access to one weneva i want.. ive pulled diff centres out b4.

just a matter of un-doing bolts and using your head... You may require the diff back lash to be professionally adjusted, but I never have, and im yet to have an issue. Just gotta pull axles out, centre out, un-do crown wheel bolts (left hand thread), punch crown wheel off, put new crown wheel on. Then you need to pull tail shaft off, un-do pinion nut, push through pinion gear, swap pinion gear over and then put it all back in the exact same way it came out... Ensure that you mark where each bit sits exactly, as it may cause some pretty bad noises and clunks otherwise... Otherwise you'll be looking at around $300 or more for a gear change. Get 3.9's from an auto R31 skyline... Maybe get a skyline diff and have a play around with that. Otherwise you can use an R31 diff centre in your VL V8 diff and just have to swap the pinion gear over and swap the complete centres over as they are the same centre.

thnx man. seems i dont have 2 go spend $800 on a turbo diff. im happy now. in a month or two wen im up 2 that stage in my project ill post a thread up and may have a few questions.. cheers dude much appreciated.
