Hi guys can anyone tell me if the R33 diff will fit in a BA falcon?? both being IRS diffs if not will the diff gears fit??

Do you not see the absurdity of your thread?

Just because two cars have IRS it doesn't mean the diffs are designed exactly the same. It's very likely that falcon diffs and r33 diffs are internally and externally different in many ways.

yeah i do know they might not fit thats Y i'm asking... thought some one might know. I'm just trying to find out if the whole IRS will fit or if the centers will swap over???

Guys, be fair

The R33 diff is a common conversion into BA falcons in drag racing and speedway circles. The trick is, that you need to use a front diff out of the GTS4 (NA). This will bolt straight in but you'll then have to convert the Falcon to 4 stud at the back. You'll also need to fit the Skyline steering rack and lock it out, but this has the benefit of giving you adjustable toe on the back of the Falcon. If you're half smart you can put a tee line into your power steering return lines, install a couple of electric solenoid actuated pilot valves and connect this to the unused terminals in the Falcon ECU to give you HICAS (you;ll need to call your local Pirtek dude to make up the hyd lines for you, as the Skyline and Falcon hydraulic fittings are different - Skylines use 1/4" BSPP and Falcon uses 3/8" NPT). Again, a little known fact that Ford played around with HICAS style rear steering, but gave it away as too costly on their budget spec taxis.

True

yep, hotrodders and modifiers do it all the time, but they generally pick on ford 9", chevy 10 bolts, or jaguar diffs etc etc

I even had landcruiser diffs front and back on my Hilux [supercharged 3.8 v6 holden conversion], so it can be done.......

    • find it funny everyone claims different fuel chains, do different things with their fuel blah blah blah. We don't have that many fuel terminals in Australia. The fuel tanker trucks drive into the terminal, fill up, and drive directly to the service station and dump out. The majority of fuel you get, is coming out of the same terminals. The variation is actually at the individual service stations and how good their tanks are, as well as how much turn over they actually have. Older fuel stations, that haven't had their tanks replaced are going to end up with the worst fuel. Also a lot of older stations have shit design, and shit maintenance, and end up with more water absorption into the tank. This is when you then get a bad batch of fuel. Other shit things happen, like tanker drivers have a f**k up, and starting to unload the wrong compartment on their truck into the wrong tank. 
    • This one?? In other news: I cannot tell the difference between my red MX5 with the silver grey hard top......... and the Ferrari 599XX EVO, they might as well be twins, well.......apart from the big wang hanging off the back of the Ferrari...🤔🤣, without the wing they are identical

    • I think you'll find we're confused about what you were trying to do and how you were doing it. I would have thought that block rigidity was something you measured while loading the block in beam or in torsion, and that you would do so before and after grout filling, to see if putting material in there created a "composite" construction with the expected rigidity increase. Notwithstanding that the true function of grout is less about gross rigidity than local (ie preventing bore deflection/splitting and tying the bores to the main bearing locations a little better, etc etc). It is nearly impossible to follow your description of what you've done without closing ones eyes and making "aliens" hand shapes in front of oneself to try to follow the manipulations you've made. It's still unclear to me what you were trying to prove.
