just shagged my daily ke30 corolla's diff. Just wanna weld it up! Has anyone done it and if so how do you do it? I have the diff out but i'm just not too sure what i need to weld, the centres out and ready to go! Pictures would help too!

depends how bad its shagged, u probly cant use it any more. the idea behind welding, is to stop the side/spider gears turning, so weld them up nice and solid. if u understand how ur diff works, u'll soon understand the principle behind welding side/spider gears. if u dont understnad, play around with it till u do. dont forget the usual speel, its illeagle and dangerous for street use. understeer on the way in, oversteer on the way out :P

fill it with bolts and nuts and washers etc, and then put as much weld in there as possible.

...then put a rotor in it and try to take a corner at 30kmh... brap brap brap...crash ..crumple..hospital.. beep .. beep.. beep... beep.

LOL

Sorry not taking the piss out of your post but I've seen so many people make "full sick" street cars out of old sardine cans with stupid powerful rotors....

I don't know about putting nuts and washers in etc. I realise you need to fill it but if the ke is a stock engine spinning up 30kg of nuts and washers everytime you put your foot down is gonna make that thing SLOW as, and it probably won't break 5kg of weld stuff...

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
