Re: Subaru R160 vs R180, what are the limits of each differential?

I ended up putting a R180 subaru LSD with 3.9 ratio. 4.11 would probably be better for the engine I have now but didn't want to fuck around with swapping the core.

Re: Subaru R160 vs R180, what are the limits of each differential?

I managed to find a sti 3.9 r180 lsd diff. 4.11 is probably a better gearing for my L20B currently but I'm just going to run the 3.9 and maybe upgrade the engine down the road.

Which CV axle conversion kit is the best?

I know there are a few companies out there making cv axle conversion kits for the 510 and I'm wondering if their is a hierarchy of who is making the best kit.  I was reading that one person had an issue with the Ermish kit but it's hard to tell if that's a design issue or something else.  I know the...

Subaru R160 vs R180, what are the limits of each differential?

Right now I'm running a stock datsun diff in my 1970 510.  It's clunking a bit and I've been thinking about upgrading to either a subaru r160 or R180.  I'm thinking for now that I'd like to run a 4.11 ratio which the r180 never came in but wondering if I'm going to be limited down the road with an R...

Re: WANTED - L Series Street Engine - Rebello - Ermish

Get a Z22 block, crank and pistons. Bore to 89mm and add KA24E pistons to the Z22 rods. Now put everything else from your L20B other than the block, on this and you have a 2.3 liter, L series hybrid engine with 10.39 compression. No 'well built' L20B will touch this. what kind of numbers would some...

Re: Recommended rear disc upgrade?

I've got a pretty similar set up except I have 200sx front coilovers. I did the rear maxima conversion with the e-brake and it's working well so far. What motor are you running?

Re: Looking to get a rear LSD Diff, what ratio/config?

Can anyone tell me if this diff will work: https://www.ebay.com/itm/234177237749?h ... SwcEdhN-xg

I know the datsunrestomod cv kit works with clip in style diffs but it's unclear to me whether that diff is a bolt in stub axle or clip in.

Re: Looking to get a rear LSD Diff, what ratio/config?

I love my 4.6 gears with the zx 5 speed. .74 OD makes it just right. Sure you don't have much acceleration in 5th but 3100 rpm at 100kph is pretty nice on the long drives. Need power? Drop to 4th and I'm at 4200 where my car just starts to make power. What gears were you running before you had your...

Looking to get a rear LSD Diff, what ratio/config?

I'm in the market for a new rear differential for my 1970 510. Currently running an L20B with dual mikuni 40's. No immediate plans to upgrade the engine. Current diff is clunking so I'm in the market for a lsd diff and thinking 4.11 gears. I know lsd 4.11 diffs are rare so I'm wondering if I'm bette...
