High-Roller Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) G'day Blokes... just want to know what I can replace my standard ke30 diff with? at the moment it has a stock 4K and 4 Speed but I want to try do SR conversion later on in its life (just gathering knowledge and parts now) My build that I might be thinking of doing is a Stock SR20DET (i will slowly build on the engine over time but not much just a clean safe street built SR) With a 5 Speed, custom tail shaft, R31 diff 4.11, with all upgraded breaks and suspension But I have heard the r31 diffs can be "Loud"... I am looking at a R33 diff but is this the case also for a r33 diff? are they "Loud" can a R33 diff even work in a ke30? I am not sure as to compatibility with diffs or trans.. so maybe if someone could give me a quick list? cheers. :) Edited May 29, 2013 by High-Roller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz_Rx Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 R33's have irs. Diffs are only really loud when the bearings wear out. A reconditioned diff (whatever it is) should be virtually silent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz_Rx Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Independent rear suspension. Can be done...... but a hell of a lot of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

styler Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Weight, lsd type and brakes should also be considered... its all part of what diff conversions are about :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High-Roller Posted May 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Weight, lsd type and brakes should also be considered... its all part of what diff conversions are about :) Weight i am not really fused, would prefure it not to be to heavy, disks would be good... want to keep the 4/144.3 Stud pattern, and just a standard lsd i guess? not much of a diff guy, only know a little about them :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
