i read about this setup awhile back but did anyone try it?

and how well does that rearend take the hard launches?

It's not the rear end, it's the rear diff. However it will take a little bit more of a beating, but nothing beats a real LSD.

ask vosko

yeah i have one works great so far...................... you need the TII LSD unit

thanks, i know that i need the LSD unit. but will it take 5000 rpm launches and if the LSD fucks up is it going to explode like the 3rd gen diffs?

it has taken my 8500 RPM launches



the reason the diff explodes is from vibration. you need a diff brace and tranny brace to stop that from happening https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

I also recommend upgraded toe links/trailing arms.

so i'll have to run ET streets instead of drag radials because they have soft sides and that should stop the vibration right?

well i haven't broken anything with my drag radials or M&H's . if you run et streets you might break an axle though

my friend went with chromoly axels so i have his stock axels just incase https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png.

do you ride the clutch off the line or just dump it?

and how much can i get a T2 rearend for?

used anywhere from $200 . new they around $600



i dump the clutch when i launch. the one in my car is brand new.......i actually have another one too. which might be for sale

i also have chromoly axles. i broke the stock axles on nitto drag radials the first time i launched https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

i have a TII diff in my FD as well. i have been racing on ET streets every week with 7500 rpm clutch drops and havent had a single problem with it. i have broken an axle, but not the diff. vosko is right though, you need a tranny and diff brace, like me https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

where do you get the trany and diff braces from?

either make them or buy them from japan

Has anyone made any that they want to sell to me? I am worried about exploding my diff, so the less vibration the better. I am getting upgraded trailing arms and busihings to help a little, but I would love to have a diff brace as well as a tranny brace.



Are they easy to make? What material did you guys use? Any help would be great? Also, do you need any form of bushing, or just a solid metal brace that connects to the diff or tranny? Where do you connect them? Any pics?



Sorry for the million questions...https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

No dampeners...They need to be solid. I will be sending vosko a set I got here in Japan(Diff brace and rear subframe brace). He may take pictures for you guys when he gets them.

jspec is the man https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683827.gif

Vosko, how many miles is on your car man



I'll prob swap over to the TII diff in the future when I decide to drag race some more but for some reason right now I'm kinda stuck on road racing.....I guess I just got tired of drag racing at the track (course on the street is a different story haha)



STEPHEN

my car has about 6k miles on it since everything was done. just put 500 miles on it over the last weekend https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

LOL...you got JDM parts y0 https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683894.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif

vosko, i thought you had your tranny brace and diff brace installed before the last race?

i told you what to do.........

i have a trans brace only on the car and i haven't broken the diff so far so good. i will just say jspec hooked me up ALOT https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif



i will race the car but i am not going to again until its ready to at the minimum run 11's ..........

Well I got the diff brace paid for...just waiting for it to be shipped to my house so I can ship it to your house. The rear subframe brace was bought however...no worries though. I've dealt with this guy before. I had Fuji e-mail him and ask for another set to be made and to ship it to me asap...that's what I did last time and it arrived 3 days later. Once I get them, I'll PM ya and then you should have it within 10 days.

i have a few diff braces. PM me if interested.... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png
