Are these any good (for the front of an escos)?
Are they different from the quaife LSD diffs with the thickwall housing or are they the same thing?
What handling characteristics will be effected?

Cheers

same thing mate, you have an ATB put in a thickwall casing.

I use one, seems to turn it and go where I want it most of the time. Not very techy I know, sorry

Newts

Sexy metal porn pics, as always, Porkie

Aye, PON I will be at Beds RS day on the 19th, but still with std 'box, so taking it easy in third until the red mist rolls in, about half a lap after the slicks are warm

Hope to experience your rally taxi in full sideways hooligan mode, should be wicked.

Cheers

i have a mint secondhand atb unit for sale

Newts

What is the purpose of the thickwall casing?
Sorry if thats a dumb question but I only have about 360bhp, so if the thickwall is for the big power brigade, then it may be surplus for me?
Would I need a cwp shot peen/polish with my puny power, also?

Thanks

Yeah, like you took it easy on that standard box at Donington hope im getting a few more passenger laps Andy

Oh & your stuff is in the post

seveneigths

how much do you want for the diff mate and how many miles on it if you don't mind me asking.pm me,cheers

Newts

Looks like we're after the same setup, Seveneights. PM'd Kev a while back about the ATB so we might end up playing scissors/paper/stone for first dibs
I see my old wheels are white again

Kev YHPM .

The casing can crack if a lot of stress is put through it! Especially on launches (Kev Sharp has cracked a thickwall one I believe as well!)

Kevin Sharp

iTrader: (3)

i have given newts first refusal on it as he pmd me before your reply
the unit is only about 18 months old and has only done a handful of trackdays and 1/4 mile stuff. no road use so probably ony a few hundred miles i,m after £325 dlivered its as new.
i,ll let you know if newts doesnt want it

Azrael

I'm after one too if both guys don't want it

Newts

So am I likely to crack a std case with 360bhp, mainly track use and a few hard launches?
Don't want the extra cost and weight of a thickwall case if I don't need it.
Any ideas?

Cheers
Newts

Azrael

Could you tell what would be the price of whole thing build WITH VAT?

What sort of many is theis shot peaning and polishing? And has it any use for rally style driven 300HP car?

Newts

Thanks for the advice, all.
Kev - cheque will be in the post tomorrow.

I'll be able to answer my own questions about quaife ATB's on my next track day

Cheers

Enquiries under way regarding a 'box, Paul...

4 wheel drive isn't cheap

Newts

Dunccoss

hi newits i have both on my car now and you can feel them working, evern more so when going slow and turning. i had just the front done on my car all summer and i noticed that it turned in better and felt so much more sure footed at the front.
that is why i have put one on the rear as well to match

seveneigths

thanks andy

Sean's gone to Atlanta today!!!!

Newts

Cheers Dunc - what driveshafts are you using up front? Have you gone for the longer xr4x4 ones or what? Having a nice grippy front end has got me worried about stuffing another offside driveshaft

Cheers Porkie, Sean's got too much stuff for a man without a car

Newts

Porkie

iTrader: (1)

seveneigths

Azrael

Just wondering what "not mad cheap" is.

Porkie

iTrader: (1)

If you have to ask... you can't afford it!

That would go for £0000's on ebay and I suspect it will as well!

Azrael

I know, any extreme stuff from Martin is probably like a Maybach - If you ask how much you cannot afford.

Martin-Hadland

iTrader: (2)

its going for.................... £1500

seveneigths

sorry mate a to much for me thanks anyway
