Jono Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 ^^ maybe, but then you could get some good pistons and turbo it with the haltech. Quote
Raven Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 (edited) Its not overkill at all. Its not like its a Ford 9 inch or anything. Edited September 26, 2006 by Raven Quote
Des Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 Overkill is not bad. Do it once properly and you wont have to do it again. Quote
Rolla__Boy Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 (edited) yeah thats true...ill just put in a ke20 diff again till i get my ke35 on the road then ill start playing around with diffs and other things...so i guess for now no more burn outs! :( Sounds like a plan, a standard diff should go ok with no burnouts. wouldnt a commo or hilux diff be a bit of over kill for a ge? Obviously it's not overkill since he just broke one, and will break more, and more...if he plans to do burnouts with the car, he will break corolla diffs over and over and over again...I have done 22 in mine, all of which have cost me nothing, which is why I have never bothered to get a bigger diff installed, but his car is actually worth doing right, so I think it's his best option Edited September 26, 2006 by Rolla__Boy Quote
Kebin[RL] Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 yeah thats true...ill just put in a ke20 diff again till i get my ke35 on the road then ill start playing around with diffs and other things...so i guess for now no more burn outs! :) Or you try ke20 standard bike wheels :( Quote

Dan Posted November 27, 2006 Report Posted November 27, 2006 having to go slow in the rain You whaaa? Rains the best time with a welded diff :jamie: Quote
ChrisGT Posted November 28, 2006 Author Report Posted November 28, 2006 You whaaa? Rains the best time with a welded diff :jamie: yeah your not wrong!...untill you kick it out too far and run up a gutter and bend your center link 3 days after getting a wheel alignment. Quote
Des Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 (edited) Whats it like driving a car with a welded diff in the dry in town ? Ive contemplated welding my KE70 diff but ive never drivin in a car with a locker before so I'm a bit sceptical about doing it. Edited November 28, 2006 by too quick Quote
Dan Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 Difficult to drive through car parks, car has a tendency to either go in a straight line or go sideways, can't really go on the power around corners, you will KILL tyres, be lucky to get 5000k's out of a pair on the rear... Have you ever heard a car with a CIG locker go through a car park? When they are going slowly around a corner, or turning, you will hear a steady 'scrub, scrub, scrub, scrub' sound... Weld the diff and work it out mate, diffs are worth sweet f@$k all, i've never paid for a single spinner diff. Quote
Des Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 Ive got 2 centre here so.... Ive herd a very tight lsd in a camaro turn a corner and its was "scrub, scrub, scrub, scrub" might weld one and keep the other open. Quote
