I have an MR30 sedan and was wondering if there is a replacement diff that i can get to upgrade to an LSD? I have installed coil overs and adjustable shocks, the car looks great (its about 4, to 4.5 inches lower :wassup: ) and handles pretty well but without an LSD it tends to understeer slightly into the corner, become nutral through the apex and then lifts the inside rear wheel and spins it when accelerating out of the apex. An LSD would really give full driver controll of the under/oversteer and make the whole package come together. I dont really want to spend a fortune, so is there a factory LSD i can pick up cheap or will i need an aftermarket item? Any help would be great,

thanks,

chris

There is a factory R200 LSD (as fitted to the DR30), and you can also get factory R180 LSD's (from 910 Bluebird Turbo's) too.

Neither are cheap....

The 'easiest' option is to get a complete DR30 rear end - this will give you larger rear discs, a 3.9:1 R200 LSD & 1/2 shafts to suit.

Be prepared to spend $1500 to set yourself up.

OK, thanks for the info. If i can get my hands on a DR30 rear end how good are the LSD's? Are there any obvious problems etc. to look for when buying one? Thanks again,

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
