[QUOTE="coldair, post: 1720964, member: 2151"] Hello Blitz3rs, If you don't mind I will attempt to answer your questions from the other thread in here since our goal is to have one topic for all 510's. Ok?. Ok, the R160, R180, R200 and also the R230 exists in all RWD Datsun/Nissan cars and they refer to the rear differential used. The numbers after the "R", example R160 refers to the diameter size of the "crown" or "ring" gear inside the differential housing. The 510 in stock form uses an R160, the 910 uses an R180, Laurel/Leopard uses R200, I think the newer Fairlady uses an R230. Nissan's rear diff comes in 2 forms, long nose and a short nose diff, 510 and the 910 comes with long nose diffs. Arrrr...!! the information here may be a bit too much for someone who is not so well versed in this area( I am also learning btw) but I hope I am not confusing anyone. The long nose diff housing has a 4-hole mounting pattern while the shorter one has only 2-holes, another thing to note is that the long nose diff is dimensionally longer than the short diff, that's they way people calls to differentiate between them. Now why fit a diff from a Subaru?, because both Nissan and Subaru uses the same diffs as manufactured by Fuji Heavy Industries which makes it a common platform for both these car manufactures as far as rear diffs are concern. In a lot of cases you can switch diff internals between a long and a short nose diff, this is especially true for the LSD carrier case which a lot of people do, happy hearing that?. So if you are not aware of this then this rear diff thingy suddenly opens up some options. There are a lot more info that's available on the Internet, if you find time please do look them up.
