did you get the out put shafts with it ? They are special for the VLSD

I had an Automatic in my Z but its nothing like the 6 speed . I had both 3.54 and 3.70 I prefer the 3.70 it make 6th more usable. A sports car just don't seem right with an Automatic IMHO

MAKE SURE YOU READ THE STORY FIRST THEN WATCH THE VIDEO
Strange but interesting. This is a car advertisement from Great Britain When they finished filming the ad, the film editor noticed something moving along the side of the car, like a ghostly white mist. The ad was never put on TV because of the unexplained ghostly phenomenon. Watch the front end of the car as it clears the trees in the middle of the screen and you'll see the white mist crossing in front of the car, then following it along the road. If you listen close, you will also notice a strange sound (so turn on your speakers). Spooky!
Is it a ghost, or is it simply mist? Or did you miss it altogether? You decide.

good job !!
You thought starting your V8z was a rush ... Wait till you drive it for the first time
Enjoy -
it can get a little confusing. First you said you got a R 200 from a Q45 from the JY did it come with the output shafts ? You will need them and that would also determine if you are going to need 5 or 6 bolts flanges. It is a VLSD correct ?

I found the info on LS1tech. Its 17 teeth .
-
Can someone give me the tooth count on the exciter gear. I'm tring to calibrate the cable X thing
Thanks

I just did the swap in my 75 Z I put a VLSD (the guts) from a 96 300z I think.
I used the vlsd out put shafts ,made my own adapters and cut and resplined my axles

Stupid question???? Whats P-TOWN. Iam cruizing the Z this weekend and I have no plans. I think you have my cel? Call me or I believe I have yours.JOEY

It settled down now I'm just doing some final adjustments and then a ride around the block. Are you going to P-town tomorrow ?
Right on!! Gotta see it. What is your def of high idle?JOEY

here are 2 more pics I hope that helps
Is the adapter plate on the splined side of the companion flange' date=' or the shaft side of the companion flange? It appears to be on the splined side, which I find hard to believe I'm seeing this photo correctly.Edit, oops, I see it better now. Disregard! These adapters look very much like the ones I've had machined for the 930 joints. Can you show photos of the adapters themselves? My main question is what was required in terms of clearance for the nuts (the ones used to hold the companion flange onto the adapter) and the amount of material left after relief cuts for the nuts were made. Did you use studs instead of bolts?[/quote']

Well It fired up last nite , I don't think it turnned of one time and it was running. I was late and dark so I shut it down . I have to go do a quick job then I'm back to check it over and then a drive. It seemed to idle faster then it should anyone have any ideas ?
-
NO they never got hot enough to where they lost their hardness
did you have the shafts hardened after they were cut and worked? -
Yes I cut each one LOL and used carbite cutters because of the hardness
Cool!How the heck do you go about resplining the shafts though? Is there a cunning machine or is it a matter of using a rotary/index plate thing and a milling machine to cut each slot individually?

I'll take some pics tomorrow and maybe that will answer some of your questions. I used grade 8 bolts no studs

yes its easy , I used my old ring gear just unbolted it. I had to make small bushings or spacers the old bolts were 10mm and the new onds were 12mm when i bolted it up to the new unit
Is the internal swap of the vlsd pretty straight forward? I have a complete r200 out of a 93z and 4 axles and I'd been thinking of something like this for a while. -
Cool Dale,
:2thumbs:I am right behind you !! I got what you got left plus run my fuel line. Then keep my fingers crossed and see if it fires
-
Not sure if this will help anyone but this is what I did. Purchased a VLSD cheap (just the guts). Installed it in my R200. Got 2 output shafts 5 bolt from 92 300z and 4 axles. Made some adapters to go to the wheel side then cut and resplined the axles (27 splined). I have not driven the car yet but I think it should work. Here are a few pics
Enjoy

you need to fill the blocks with concrete and off site them some short pieces of steel would also help
