RedM Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 He must have another fault leading to the demise of diffs Wheel size and width plus loadsa power. I think CW mentioned something about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 There are loads of cars with power and wheels that size. His first one went before the big wheels too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I hadn't read CW's comments but I too wondered if it had too much grip for it's repeatedly aggressive starts. He might well be better off, A) Reducing the width of his tyres B) Looking at the other diff's he could use (KAAZ, Cusco & TRD) C) Or simply driving less aggressivly off the line.... D) Getting the whole drivetrain looked over by Chris W to see if he can fathom any other reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michel lane Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 what size tyres is he running ?? and wheel size ??, that may be the cause of the problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 It was an open, Auto diff so probably not suitable for his driving style or the power of the car. I agree with the points Alex has made though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 So just a stocker diff? F*ck me no wonder. I think I've fried my diff on my auto only running 500 ish brakes on an auto. The tomei ones are only £550 from ebay as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
