qualife diff

[jonn]

im thinking of buying one of these second hand off a lad i know for my f13 gearbox, i am mainly getting it beacuse i use my nova for autocross and grass track, i have the power but i need more grip lol. i will be using my nova for rallysprints and track days aswell and i wondering is their any advantage of the diff on tarmac?

You'd be better off trying to get a plate diff if your using your nova on the green/brown stuff ;)

[jonn]

whats the diffrence between them?

[fearless]

plenty of info on here about LSD's and the differences - use the search function :)

[jonn]

ok i will search again. would a diff from a f16 gearbox fit a f13?

[fearless]

F13 diff different from F16 diff

plate diffs are more suited to the loose stuff than the ATB (quaiffe) as they wont just let the free spinning wheel keep spinning.

i went to look at the diff and its a 90% plate diff, would the diff still have the hole for the spedo drive? beacuse i have a x16xel engine in my car and it needs the vss conected to the spedo and gear box

Just fitted a Tran-x lsd diff to my F13 box the speedo drive wheel did not fit any more but with some messing about it would have done. Give the lads at Tran-x a phone call and they will give you all the info you need I found them very helpful. If your going off road then you must use a plate diff.

Hi jonn, steg1970 has a plate lsd for sale here on PNG

[jonn]

ok thanks, would it be possible to put a speedo gear on a diff?

usually. but its a delicate job as the rings are brittle as fook.
