I'm Buying A Front Quaife Diff, What Should I Do For Rear ?

[cobrAA]

I'm sold on the quaife front diff on a BNR32.. Right now I'm driving a OEM rear diff which is , most likely, 25 yr old! I have a ATS 1.5 way LSD lying around ( I put it for sale but no one bite the bullet yet..). Should I install this diff or sell it and buy a quaife in the rear OR just run the oem one ?

thanks!

Throw the ATS in, you already have it so why not or rebuild the stocker

[cobrAA]

I'M afraid the cost of rebuilt will be close to the cost of the Quaife ( seems like tranny shop are are in my area so they charge a lot knowing they have the ''monopole'' no shit.. its like 1000$ to rebuilt with the 300$ kit..)

[XKLABA]

Oh that sucks, drop the ATS in there then

im not sure where your located cobrAA but I have found myself in nearly the same situation..

I currently have a quaife front diff and a standard rear diff which im sure is not doing as a good a job as it could.

I spoke to Award at seven hills and they will re-shim the standard diff to make it tighter for 400ish dollars from what I can remember them telling me.. you have to pull the diff out yourself though.

In saying that a quaife rear would be the way to go based off how good the fronts are

[XKLABA]

He is in the state iirc

The standard diff is a good price of gear, the one in my 32 is still working fine and you have seen what it takes

[GTR_JOEY]

That is true! The first car I was ever passenger in a texi haha

And yea it was one wild ride.. I might just get mine re shimmed

[XKLABA]

I have a spare 32 diff and a new set of 34 gears I will get rebuilt, that is what is going into the 34 to get rid of the A-LSD

[GTR_JOEY]

Nice.. Who's throwing that together for u?

[XKLABA]

Terry of cause

You coming to the trackday ?

[GTR_JOEY]

probably not mate, cars still in bits... hurts too much to watch

[XKLABA]

LOL!!!!

I know that feeling, I hate watching

My 34 is still on stands, hopefully it will be down in two weeks and on the dyno for a check up the week before

Farken A-LSD...

In here!

[XKLABA]

The A-LSD was perfectly fine till I put the Quaife up front, now its as useful as a paper weight

Would like to have it in by trackday but cutting it a bit fine now and work has got real busy

[Piggaz]

That's exactly what mine did. The rear had a spas attack with the extra grip from the front end... Single peggers FTL!

Yeah so unless, I find a great deal on a quaife rear diff, i will buy the front and put the used ATS 1.5 there . thanks

Few people use the Quaife rear - most use the Nismo or recond stocker (or can you get Kaaz at a good price?)
