Hi Merv, that six bolt flange pattern looks exactly the same as the 3.7 ratio helical that I sourced from a manual S15 200SX. As I think I mentioned earlier the auto version used a viscous centre and may be different.

I got the S15 half shafts with the centre and it went straight into my R33 cradle. They seem to be interchangeable in that regard in the R32, R33 & R34 Skylines. The S15 diff is borrowed from the R34, so it also matches - not sure about earlier 200SX variants though. As for splines, exact match for me.

Try to get the 12 bolts and nuts with the shafts. They have a unique shoulder on the bolt that is hard to match at the bolt shop. Genuine Nissan items weren't cheap!

Please let us know how the road manners change with those solid bushes. I'm also looking to replace the old rubber bushes in mine.
