jazz1 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Ok I just need some advice before i purchase one, ideally i want the majestic kit but waiting a reply if they can fabricate the Smaller diff cover. I beleive the supra only has two types of Diff? Large and small case? My supra being facelift has the smaller case A03B, Mpc contacted me saying they sell both covers. So I'm true to beleive the one I need to order is in the link below: Both type: http://www.mpcmotorsport.com/differential.html I order this one? http://www.mpcmotorsport.com/automatic-differential-cover.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I would consider what you do here carefully. If there's a chance you want to upgrade to a large case diff in future, this will be wasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not an issue il invest in a larger case later in life when I find a decent one, but for now I'm keeping the smaller case etc i know what I have decided for my goals on the supra . Anyways as above would I be ordering the correct one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 As above and also double check the diff code as some facelifts have v161 mated to a B03b from the factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bignum Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Looks like a total waste of cash to me, i suppose the mot guy will be impressed when he jacks the car up on mot day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 If you like drag racing they are well worth fitting, I wouldn't bother fitting one to a small case diff though tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Jamie but for now I may just fit one for peace of mind, although I will be investing in large case diff future for emergency like you always have done . - - - Updated - - - Looks like a total waste of cash to me, i suppose the mot guy will be impressed when he jacks the car up on mot day?

Dnk Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Workshop is flat out i'm afraid so no chance of doing any of these for some time. I doubt it would be worth us getting involved with to be honest but i will speak to my brother and see what he thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a photo of one ? a photo of the inside of the cover would be a help to I'm guessing this is PHR's version Edited October 2, 2014 by Dnk (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
