Plated 2 way rear diff in........FUN!!

[bigBADbenny]

Plated diff center or the whole lot?

[Stu]

Great to finally see your Lib Dan! I knew it would have a bunch of sick JDM bits

I'm guessing the 2 way is a much tighter version of the STIs torsen R180 centre?

[bigBADbenny]

Plated: the amount of limited slip is determined by preloaded clutch packs, the extent of which under braking or acceleration, can be determined by 1, 1.5 or 2 way ramps, 2 way being full limited slip under braking and acceleration, 1.5 way being a happy medium: less likely to loose traction due to lock under braking.

Torsen: helical gears that "sense" torque, the wheel/s with most grip will get the power, but an unloaded wheel will spin, requiring a little braking to regain traction to that end.

Yeah 2 way gives an amazing amount more traction then the helical job.

Center or full diff Benny, you get the same effect mate, a worthy upgrade.

When i get back from the snow, I might throw a helical in the front for some more traction

[bigBADbenny]

Good plan
I was asking regarding install difficulty.
Setting preload looks like fun if swapping in an upgrade diff center

[dja]

This was remove and replace.
But for just a center if you dont have the tools, drop your diff, and a new center to a diff shop, easy job for them.

Took her for another hot lap, so, so much better then the helical job.

Now its beer time.

New rims on a filthy car

[Bumpty]

Going to paint those black?
Yummy liberty mate.

[dja]

Bleck, no chance.
For the first time in any car i have ever owned i have decided to chase looks and performance, rather then just outright balls.

Might be due to the fact i bought a GC8 for stupids.....

[HoFF]

Never ever paint those black. Ever.
