Coming out of the gas station. didn't even get on the gas, and tore 3 teeth off the ring gear.
Those new heads are making too much power. So the question is what to replace it with? I've heard that Datsun turbo differentials are pretty brutish. but I don't know. The biggest problem is that the rear end is independent, so I can't just go get a big mustang part or something. About 600 horses now. What to do, what to do? I know I'm in real trouble, and this is how you tell. . . I'm broken down a block from my house, and I can't stop smiling. It's like it's christmas. This car could eat every penny I make and I'd smile and offer it more. It's like I'm dating Jennifer Aniston. |

I have also heard that Datsun diffs are strong. I have a friend putting one in his Locost for that reason.
Are you sure that the diff in it was timed correctly? It seems rather odd that the car ripped teeth off with such "little" applied load. Maybe a new TR6 diff would do it for you. The TR-8 diff would probably fit (they have a TR-6 drivetrain stock, right?) and should be stronger too. I have never looked at one though. Good luck. |
