A main issue with the R33 diff is availability in the states...which in terms of spares go is about close to 0. If you want Arnold, you can talk to Z10 as they're very interested in doing the rear end using the diff I mentioned. That diff is good for 10 second passes and hopefully is close enough to fit. Problems once again with space because the gas tank is so low.

 

I will talk to them, I was trying to get something as close to OEM as possible but I guess the r33 is not going to hold. There are a few diff swaps out there already and they seem to be holding up pretty well. Each have removed the factory gas tank in order to run bigger external pumps. We are going that route too.

As far as the tranny, there are two holding some power with shot peening, cryo and polshing...I hope it works.

 

Ok guys I am in for a rear end and tranny. I am going to be close to 500hp with my 60-1 turbo.. Keep me up to date and i am good for the money..

 

Great to know that so many people are interested

It would be great if we could get some discount. If we don't at least hopefully we can some priority with a bigger order.

BTW what are the best differential and gearbox's gear ratio for drag and track setups?

 

just for clarification purpose
elaug's dyno number is equivalent to around 450rwhp over your side of the world as we usually get around 125-130rwkw on the dyno dynamics and you guys get around 200rwhp for a stock engine.

 

The reason why $8000 is too much is because it'll be almost impossible to get 30 people to get it. I was fine with the price they were originally gonna shoot for and just buy 30 of them all at once myself and then sell them one at a time. Most people who blow the whole diff wont buy the thing and just buy another complete OEM rear end. Why? That's just how people are. Even though it'll cost the same, they'll more than likely still buy it from honda rather than Quaife. It's very hard to convince these companies to really do anything.

 

Totally!

 

has anyone thought about the talon, dsm awd 4 bolt rear end? its very small and from what i understand very strong. also there are skyline rear diffs on ebay right now for 325 buy it now

please let me know your thoughts on the dsm 4 bolt rear though. thanks

 

haha, dont talk. You cant even post in the metro forum cause everyone know what a moron you are.

 

Been Reading this thread since the beginning.......There is some very good info in this thread. Any one know if Z10 is going to be making a diff????? I live only 10 blocks away from them and also am friends with one of the guys that works there. I met the owner once and he seemed very interested in the S2000. Also seen the F20c blocks that he was building. Looks like they do very good work and also keep a very clean shop.....

I am also interested in getting an upgraded diff even if the cost is high. I think of it as you get what you pay for. Also piece of mind of a stronger diff is worth the extra $$$.
