The inevitable happened, I broke the diff
Actually it lasted more than I expected

So, here is the broken 8G VR-4 AYC Diff







The Replacement. An 8G VR-4 non-AYC Diff. Because its housing is made from steel unlike the AYC diff which is made from aluminum, it will hold some power







Non-AYC Diff vs. AYC Diff



While we're at it. Lets go LSD
Cusco RS 1.5 Way LSD ( Evo I to IX )





Open diff vs. LSD diff



LSD ready to go

damn for a minute there I thought that was a transfer case, that thing is BIG!

[Trotty]

Wow. Drool!

[keith6110]

Why the LSD was not done sooner on such a build is beyond me =P

I'm sure you will notice a significant difference!

The AYC diff wanted to come out and say hello.

Re-tuned the G and solved the glowing manifold problem which was caused by improper ignition timing so now she has 600 HP @ 22 PSI of boost

This makes me want to turn my engine sideways and go to town =P

Not that I haven't told you before, but this is awesome! 600hp

[Samman]

And making quite a noise

[djhah]

So sick!

Bought Toyo R888 Tires





And went to try them





And I got massive wheel spin in the first 3 gears. I got to figure out something

[coconut]

Heat them up, makes them sticky.

[oakrdrs187]

Gonna need a wider tire. Greddy spins his 255's with half the power this beast makes.

Looks like that pass was about 15 seconds, the wheel spun did affect you alot as well as track condition. For best time you are gonna want slicks, the car needs taming its like a hound from hell the cure for this is lots and lots of seat time. Very impressive build.

Yeah because Greddy's FWD car is comparable to a RWD car.


All in all this car is pretty cool but it will never really perform like one would think of given the connotations of a 2JZ. The rear suspension is multilink, it's made for AWD and handling and it's old technology. You're putting more power through it than it can handle, while it may not break into pieces yet the hardware is physically too small to handle it. It'll flex, move around and result in pitiful traction all the time and poor handling. Beyond that you can't get wide tires back there. 235 is too small for any car that makes power short of a go kart. Even more than that an 18" wheel doesn't support straightline traction either. You need a tall sidewall for that.

If you ever do start to hook then you'll begin breaking things. Control arms, axles, and burning up rear differentials like crazy. Evo guys break all those things with the same power at all four wheels... The fact is spinning is the only reason it hasn't grenaded yet.
