Hi folks,

After a very successful weekend's racing i have come to the conclusion that i need to drop my diff ratio down to a 3.9. With the added torque of the 2.2 now and my rear end mod's improving drive i am finding that i am geared to short, found the rev limiter more than once in the heat of battle with a bloody Evo 10!!!

I remember seeing some time ago crown wheel and pinion sets for sale, or if someone has a set im happy to do a swap if the condition is comparable to mine (4.375 stamped on crown-wheel)

Cheers,

Would these be suitable.

No worries
I have got the diff sorted for the 1600.
I ended up buying a brand new 5.1:1 crownwheel and pinion from nissan and shotpeening and micropolishing it
If you had a 4.8:1 i might be interested for a spare

Rev limiter is set for 9700
That puts the car at around 247 km/hr in top gear at the rev limiter

Thanks John,

I will most definitely keep that in mind, the 3.5 may bee too much and the 3.9 not enough!!!

What do you mean by SOR????!! (not good with acronyms!)


Lampy,
Insane RPM.....give me a call when you know what your plan is, I have a guy coming to pick up some con-rods from my place in the morning, then I am out for a bit, then back home doing the rear alignment on my race car for the arvo and prepping for Collie next week end.

Your welcome any time,

Cheers

sooo,

reviewed all of my in-car footage and data today (nursing a killer hangover,,,,,,,)

I have done some numbers and i have settled on a 4.1 diff, the 3.9 drops me nearly 800rpm which will be an issue on 3 turns on the track.

So my hunt continues but now only for a 4.1:1......Thanks Lampy and John for the offers :thumbsup:

Any 4.1's out there lads?

John

Do you have any R200 Companion Flanges, the 4 bolt drive shafts bolt to and then go into the diff??

1 is slightly longer than the other

Cheers


John
