 |
|
| Okay i've searched an as far as i can see no-ones asked this question before... What type of diff upgrades are available for the gemi and what are their power handling, associated problems (eg fitting it in/engineering), rough costs, etc... I am looking at the diff upgrade to an lsd next, i know theres some place in brissy that will do 150hp capable lsd centres, and a hilux diff conversion is around $1400, what are the piazza diffs like??? Also i am currently talking to Rod Hadfield about full details on the V6 Conversion, so as soon as i have them i will post them... |

| So what sort of power handling does the piazza diff have??? And with the diesel diff is it a straight bolt up, or do mods need to be done, etc??? What about others??? |

| I'm lookin at the V6 conversion, so i'd say i'll have to look more closely into the hilux one, as from memory 168kw or so at the flywheel will kill that diff, plus i'd prefer to have a safety margin instead of run it on the limit. I got that quote through Mazsprint in Brissy, theyre out virginia, they send em off somewhere to get em done but... so if you found who actually did it it'd be a bit cheaper. |

Reddez, I talked to Rod recently about V6 conversions out of curiosity and found out that there isn't much involved to get it engineered (in victoria anyway). It will pass with "Hoppers Stoppers" front brake VT conversion, CRS V6 fitting kit, all standard pollution stuff - airbox, computer, cat, ULP filler neck. That is all that is required.
Cheers. |
