Diff Rebuild

[Neil]

I'm a single spinner at the moment. Have any of you guy's had a re-build?. I sorta need it done real quick,,,track days are comin up. Any help would be much appreciated.

im in the same boat neil..

G'day Neil - how have you been ??

Not sure if you'll be interested, but Unique have a diff upgrade fro around $1200 I think. Makes it tighter etc... Or you may be able to find a 1 or 1.5 way for around $500 which may be less you'd pay for a stock rebuild..

Not sure how much it'd cost to fix up the stocker.

Cusco 1 way

do it Neil, you know you want to

[red900ss]

I recall seeing a thread or 2 saying they are about $2-300 for a rebuild somewhere here in Sydney Neil. Try a search????

Neil - I think there is a place in Wahrongah (near Hornsby) that can rebuild them - Called Wahrongah clutch & diffs or something like that -

Forget the 1 way - go the 1.5 or 2 way - UAS has Tomei ones on their web site -

Pretty pricey but.

Maybe powerplay have got a good deal going ?

[B-Man]

Also there's a dude selling a brand new Nismo 2 way for $1850 on the forums - he's in Sydney -

If I had the moolah - I'd consider this as it is a full kit - brand new never used.

only thing with the mechanical diffs (as Jody will confirm) is they are pretty grumpy and noisy.

If thats not a problem they are *definately* the way to go

If not you can apparently get extra shims added to the standard LSD style diff to get it to hold tighter as well. By all accounts the stock locking pressure is pretty mild even when it is working OK.

What is this one way, 1.5, 2 way thing people are talking about?

[B-Man]

1 way - locks 100% on accelaration 0% on decelaration

1.5 way locks 100% on accelaration and 50% on decelaration

2 way locks 100% on accelaration and decelaration

AFAIK

[Abo Bob]

So if you are going around a corner and accelarating then your inside rear will be spinning?

[Abo Bob]

A little I mean.

[B-Man]

Put more power down and it becomes DORIFTO ;)

1 way or 1.5 for Track / Circuit.

1.5 or 2 Way for Drift.

Very clunky and noisy at low speed - Dan had one (A 1 way I think)

[Majanal]

Yes I have a 1 way... VERY clunky... but you can learn to drive them quietly I have been told... I'm getting better, but means another thing to think about... and they SUCK in car parks!

BUT...

They Kick ARSE on the track totally!

[B-Man]

Why he drives a race/drift car in a car park , I don't know......

[Majanal]

practice of course!

I can't reverse park for sh1t! :wassup:

[Tosh]

you need to get to a motorkhana

[Robo]

Has anyone here used the UAS diff for $1200??

Whats it like? Is it noisy?

Regards

Rob

[B-Man]

Personally I wouldn't buy a viscous LSD for $1200 when you can get a brand new 1.5 way for near that.

Just my opinion tho

[Robo]

Thanks for the reply.

I want to keep to standard as possible, I hear all the time people say when they buy other diff's they get noisy and clunk a fair bit..

Just throught getting the old one recod. would be safe..
