well finally the trd lsd got fitted today and for anyone who is going to attempt the job it can be annoying at times lol

it started about 9 this morning when i called out to gedis and we finished about half 5 with about a one hour break in between where we done some backyard drifting in his 320 bmw with the welded diff :p:p

un fortunately no pics as i could not find the charger for the camera but i should be able to answer any questions if anyone is stuck doing theirs so dont be shy :p:p

now the difference , off the line there is definitely reduced wheel spin and when turning at low speeds there is a slight clunk but nothing really , i went out of my way on the spin home to test it on some roundabouts and it makes a massive change here it pulls me around the corner rather than sliding away from it , i didnt do as much testing as i like as im hungry and going to the pics shortly so didnt have time but first impressions are very good :rockon::rockon:

i must say a big thanks to GEDIS who done most of the work today he is very talented and once he stays off the vodka very nice to deal with :p:p

and finally after just ordering powerflex mounts for the car yesterday we found out i have trd mounts already in the car that are in great condition and a lightened flywheel also that i never knew about :homer::homer: so keep your eyes out for a sale thread soon and thanks for reading :rockon::rockon:

glad to hear you got it sorted. they make a huge difference in handling and all round grip thats for sure.

what method did you use to set the pre-load on the diff bearings?
did you shim the LSD or put it in straight from the box?



cheers

my ct9 beat him cause he drives like a sissy diff or no diff:p:haha:

them leeds helped you alot, thei alone would beat any td04 car. your car badly needs to tighten the alternator belt and release the power steering belt alot, cause you wreck power steering pump bearings, i think you tightened the wrong belt and its way too much.
