Supraleeturbo Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 As the title says Anyone running v160 on a tt auto lsd. I'd like to know what people think and would they keep it as is or get a tt6 big case ? I can get a big case as I have the prop for it but was going to sell but if it's horrible to drive with an tt auto lsd then I may keep and get a big case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 That's what I was going to do lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supraleeturbo Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 After speaking with a few people seems to be It's fine just shorter gears so quicker acceleration Lower top speed but that won't bother me too much as I don't use my car for top end speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignum Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I`ve got that combo, for the track its perfect for me, a gear for every situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drift_bear Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 V161 + A01B from a tt auto fitted to my car, it's a great combo and quick through the gears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 May have to get an auto diff then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPG Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Alex means diff code A02B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I'm building a shell up at the moment and mating the V161 to the large case UK auto diff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 My first Supra was a BPU car with a V160 and auto diff. Never had any issues with it. Although I did eventually swap it for a large case manual diff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemanhead Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 You will go through the gears faster, you wont be going faster though. I swapped to a TT6 diff because I found i could light the tyres up very easily without R888's on the back, even in third and you are just changing gear too often. I can see why it would work well on a track with the correct setup though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parry_10 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 On the track perfect as you're always changing gear anyway. For the road or 1/4 shite. Will have more traction issues and a same spec car with the manual diff will be pulling away from you easily. The only other advantage I can see is the auto diffs go for half the money and arnt too hard to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 The ratio can be corrected using taller profile tyres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parry_10 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Also depends how you drive. If you drive like miss daisy doesn't really matter what diff you have in the car lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supraleeturbo Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 The ratio can be corrected using taller profile tyres. At the mo I use 295/35/18. I would like some traction from a dig but then I don't always drive like a mad man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
