Guest tejas74260 Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 i looked around to see if it were covered, but it seemed like nobody asked the same question i did. does the R230 bolt into the early z's with the same modifications as the R200 (rear cover, cv adapters, stub axles), but i think it said the R230 had to have a different type of imput shaft put on it as it was not the same as the R200. anyways, im sure you guys can answer this with relative ease, just let me know what i need (and if it's possible) to swap a VLSD R230 from a 91 300ZXtt. (3.7:1) thanks Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Input flange is different, mounting points are different, custom half shafts, custom front diff mount, modified mustache bar. That's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mas28O Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I am not sure that the conversion parts from the q45 will work for your r230 from the 300zxtt. I now think that the q45 is a r200 and not a r230, the r230 from the 300zxtt is wider. It would be nice if the q45 parts would work. maichor has some pics of both diffs side by side.

Guest tejas74260 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 so would all that work not be worth what you can get with a r200 lsd? by the way, in case anyones interested, here it is http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7909397124&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mas28O Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I am using the q45 diff in my car with very good results. The r230 from the 300zxtt might be a harder swap. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
