ok guys, i'll try and make this short and sweet.

I am over trying to source a diff for my 2001 S, i just simply cant find 1 anywhere...

My diff whinds between 90 - 100 km's

it also crunches when i turn into car parks with the clutch engaged.

I know that these are bearings causing the whinding and the crown and pinion chewing on itself but my question is....

i would like to be pointed in the right direction of what other options i have with buying aftermarket products to strengthen the diff. I use the car every day so please dont mention to change the final drive as i personally like it and it suits the type of driving i do.

Also

I would like it if you guys could post up some expected prices and websites/places where i could buy these parts. I am not really knowledgable about diff's so please try and keep this simple.

I just think that if i am going to have to rebuild my diff i would like to know what i can do/buy to prevent this from happening again sooner.

I might aswell say also, if any1 has a diff that is in good working order, please pm me as i am in the market to purchase 1.

Any advice is much appreciated. (I am based in melbourne's west)

It's really the pinion gears that is weak not the actual LSD unit

Your mods should really reflect your driving style and what your expecting to do with your car. No point spending money on mods, if your a sunday driver. The single best mod for the diff is to replace the OEM pinion collar, with a solid/non crush type.

Keep an eye out for the inline pro r200 kit. There has been a few forsale in s2ki. Also diff technics make an r200 kit too but looks abit more ghetto. Lol. Not sure if it effects hIandling or not but would be good for abusive owners. Hahah. Go inline if u got the cash.
I picked up a second hand kit from difftechnics for about 2k minus r200 diff, which u can find for about 200 if u look around. Or 500 from difftechnics But it's supposed to be a rebuilt one.
I Haven't got it in yet. No cash and I kinda stuffed my neck so cant do myself either..:( Also gotta make 2 diffs into 1. Lol
But that's another option. Uh from memory tho. Delivery alone for inline kit is 900.
The difftechnics mounts are about 500. Dunno how much they do their kit for.
But I'll be looking for some prices to make custom cvs to fit. Coz the ones they sold me are totally ghetto.
