Well I've been looking for r33 GTS-T half shaft replacements. Just need some varification. I got a pair of z32 n/a shafts... I thought the drivers side was supposed to be shorter than the passengers. But it wasn't not sure if it was swapped out or what.

Can anyone confirm if j30 92-94 5 bolt axles fit the r33 vlsd in an s chassis or anyother half shaft combo?

I know this isnt directly RB related, but since a lot of ppl are getting rear subs with their clips I figured it might be beneficial to know...

I'm not sure what to tell you, but I know that I _will_ be having a pair of R33 vLSD half-shafts for sale pretty soon. The only thing that I am keeping is the inside joint that connects to the actual vLSD unit. LMK if you are interested.

Correct.

I'm making 'hybrids' using the S-13 half-shafts and the 5 star flanges. I have the complete R33 rear sub-frame that I'm not using :-\ Oh well!

Yeah, the z32 n/a half-shafts are the same as the GTS-T r33's.

I have the entire R33 subframe installed on my car and just broke the pass side half-shaft. I got a replacement one on ebay for $25 shipped (n/a z32).

Are you positive? I thought the same thing, picked myself up a pair of 300zx.. he never specified what ones. The driver is about 1-2 inches shorter than the passenger side on the r33 these shafts where the same length which was to long. The passenger side one worked great, driver didnt fit.... Unless he gave me two of the same side?

So the ones from the z32 were the same length? If thats so, he sent you two of the same side.

The ones I got from the z32 were two different lengths. I have an extra z32 driver's side, if you need it email me.
