Not unwrapped it like! Be chucking it in tomorrow!

 

Which stage did you buy???Regards,Micky

 

avatar looks real cool


my old st2+ was awesome

 

I have the stage 2 and its awesome even with just less than 200bhp

 

Yeh stage 2 lads luvin it!

 

what can a stage two take,as i have one in mine but still not sure how much power/torque it can handle...........

 

Mine's 245bhp/230 torque and it took two years to break it lol. That was two years of proper abuse though, track strip etc. Only needed a few bits replacing though, diff was fine and it's back in again going strong!!!

 

Quality mate, how much was it for a stage 2, i take it this has the atb diff in ?

 

The stage 2 has the atb in yeah, round about the £1000 mark once you've added the dreaded iirc!

 

Il be up in the morning mate for a look........

 

whats the difference in driving with one? any?

 

Thats alot of dosh considering ive recently built one for my track car, still using the ford lsd diff, cost me just over 1/10th of that to build.

 

Well yeah you've just explained why yours was so cheap to do.....
A.) You've used the standard diff (atb diff alone is around £600)
B.) You haven't paid anyone to rebuild it, i think you'd be surprised what cts do to their boxes to ensure they handle the power...

A standard box (which it sounds like you've basically got) won't last long with big power, the cts stage2 and above are proven to do the business! What parts did you actually replace when rebuilding your box??

 

Im selling one of those boxes if anyone is after one

 

I agree with what you have said about myself using the standard diff like there stage 1 box, but ive stripped a cts box which was also stage 1 and the only difference i could see is the oversize bearing, so i wont be surprised no, all im saying is there expensive.

Ive built this box to the same specifications as there stage 2 except the diff, oversize mainshaft bearing, modified case, ib5 bearings, all the same, so if i was to use this box in a reasonably modded rs it would do the same job as theres, i belive the atb diffs are around the £400 mark so i was told.

 

Just dragged the old box out with some help from boothy this morning!

 

nice one=)

have the stage 2+ box in my garage...lol still wrapped in

 

looking good mate....few hours she will be in

 

Do they feel different to drive at all?

 

please tell me where i can get an atb diff for 400 mate, i have been after one for ages.

 

You probably won't brand new.....as i'm pretty sure they cost more than that to the general public!

 

what sort of power are you after?? best to keep your torque below 250ftlbs or its on borrowed time
