Not Ranked
All done! Took longer than I thought, but lying on the garage floor with the car on axle stands is a real test. Thanks to Scott I have a (less usual) Nissan 3.55 R33 diff and drive shafts. Thanks also to Warren and Paul for putting up with my repetitive questions. The new diff had exactly the same outer dimensions as my original R33 so the drive shaft fits perfectly and all the mounting bolts aligned easily. Used the ally bushes on the front of the diff and poly ones on the rear. Raising a big diff under a car and bolting it in, is awkward work.
Drives very differently now, with ability to rev out more through the gears and first, second and third are more useable. It really transforms the drive of the car. I may need to re-calibrate/check my speedo now however.
