ezzzzzzz Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I picked up a 95 J30 VLSD R200 for $26 at the local P-N-P. My intentions are to put it into a 280Z longnose R200. This will replace my Nismo 4.11:1 R180 CLSD. Before anyone jumps in on the issues let me set things straight. - I have the R200 mustache bar. - I had 10 each 12mm OD x 10mm ID monel bushings made for adapting the early 10mm ring gear bolts to the later 12mm bolt carrier. - I have custom adapters that will allow me to use the 6-bolt pattern of the J30 differential output axle shafts with my Porsche 930 CV joints. I only need to shorten the empi halfshaft axles and regroove for circlips. - The engine will be a 2.9 stroker boosted with an Eaton M62 supercharger. - The tranny will be either a later 5 speed. The question I have is whether to use the existing 3.54 r&p or try to locate a 3.7 longnose r&p set. My thoughts tell me that the 3.54 would be better suited to the stroker. This is a street driven 1971 240Z that will likely see little or no track time. Opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
