Sti Diff

[passin ewe]

Hey all, does anyone know for sure if the WRX STI 3.9 R180 LSD is the same as the C210 R180 open center, meaning a straight bolt up. There is one on ebay for $1000 and I'm wanting to buy one real soon. If not what is the next option ( easiest). Cheers

keen as to know this too. my open center is really letting the team down.

thanks for popping the question Ricky.

will bolt into your rear x member yes, but you'll need to mod to suit the cv's

Subi diff's are popular with the USA datsun guys, go to their forums and do a search

[ydr030]

weld it or get an r200.

you may be able to fit the lsd carrier to your crown wheel and pinion. but it will depend on bolt sizes. but as previously stated, check the usa forums.

ps Cameron... saw your missus driving from ipswich to morooka yesterday... she went past as i was leaving my driveway.....felt like i was staking her cause i went just one street past where she turned off. nice car once again...

reminds me of my old orange one......mmm

[Silent Shadow]

hehe that's cool. Saturday you mean though right?? i was in the car too but was passed out in the front seat lol.

it sounds like you're ready to buy a C210 again mate. do it.

question: how much better is the Sooby diff compared to the r200? is it worth the hassle and price?

[skybt1]

an sti diff is just an r180 with an sti center isnt it? so an r200 would be better coz its bigger?

[passin ewe]

Forgotten about the ebay now as Drew is helping me out with a LSD. I don't want the hassle of modifying, just wanting to bolt straight up.

[skybt1]

that right, you want interchangeable parts not custom items.

Thanks Drew for hooking me up with the extortionist (joke), I now have a R200 LSD on it's way to me Yahoo!! I could also be buying a turbo supra box and housing tonight to put away for the V8 conversion ( it's over there in the distance) but it's getting closer. Got to sell my motor, $2500 bloody bargain. Interested anyone?

[Silent Shadow]

shit ricky i thought you were gunna do an RB conversion??

[passin ewe]

Yeah, that was an idea, things change sometimes. Who knows, I might put a VH45 in or maybe a hmmmm it's nice to dream. At least the 9" is coming

I was looking at the same thing for my 240z but will probably just get a Quaife lsd or this company do them as well http://members.optusnet.com.au/amaxeng/five10/diff.htm

for my coupe im going to bolt in a R30 arse end, so i have cv rear

If its an r30 coupe rear end you'll get a free upgrade to rear disc brakes as well! Dont forget to grab the bigger 15/16 inch master cylinder and electronic distributor, too.
