How much do r200 long nose 4.1 CLSDs go for? And what do they come out of?

Think you might want to check that ratio again. I would say in useable shape about $600 or so. And they come out of 87+ 300zx turbos.

Im not talking about a 3.7 clsd out of a 87-89 300zxt, im asking about a 4.1 clsd, that are very rare.

R200 gears are R200 gears...

From a quick Google-machine search, it sounds like only the Aussies have talked about it (or cared...):

Wtb. R200 4.1 Lsd Diff. ** Longnose Only ** - Skylines Australia

If you are up to the SUPER high price (probably several hundred dollars in shipping alone), and the not-the-best-solution way of doing this, start asking on the Australia / NZ forums.

Is anyone on this form running one or seen how much they go for? I have read that link before but again it says nothing about price, beside he's willing to pay alot for one. I would also like to know how it would do in a 280zx.

I really doubt anyone on this forum is running that super rare JDM / Aus / NZ Skyline diff on their Z. In the 5 minutes I've spent on Google searching for you, the obviously loud and clear answer (of which I already stated) would be to check out the Australian Nissan forums.

Apparently you are searching this out for a friend? So he's willing to pay a super high price for the rare factor, rather than using a normal Z31T CLSD and sourcing a 4.1 gear?

Nope searching for me, and i have a Z31 CLSD in my car now. But i just pick up a 4.1 CLSD from a friend and I want to run it.

just get a 3.9 out of a regular 5 spd 82-83 ZX and weld it.

Had one traded it for the 4.1.

This thread officially gives me a headache.

Sorry about that, I'll put it in and let you guys know how it goes. Have you guys checked ebay? Theres a Z31 turbo R200 CLSD with no diff cover for $1000.00 right now!!! Thats crazy!

What was the original purpose (question) of this thread?

You asked how much they go for, and what they are from... I posted a quote of what they came from and you said you already read it... then you asked again how much they go for, because "he's willing to pay a lot" and you are searching for one for you ... now you already have one and you are just going to install it?

This is soap opera material right here.

Well i was just asking to see if i got a good deal or got riped off.

NismoPick

Well, I'd say $600-$1000 to buy a Z31T CLSD and change the ring gear to 4.1... so if you paid less than that, then you probably didn't get too ripped off.

I bought my Z31T CLSD on ebay around 6 years ago for $630. Then 2 years ago I found an 87 Z31T in a junk yard and paid I think $60 for it's CLSD... then sold it for $600.

BTW, unless you plan on only driving the car on the 1/4 track, or racing everyone stoplight to stoplight, you will hate a 4.1 gear ratio.

4x4 rock crawlers use 4.1 ratio diffs.
