Sorry. To MAMotorsports for pricing. My bad. I'll be watching your implementation of this and follow suit.
Please update with how you like the feel of the solid bushings. I just ordered the Z1 urethane ones and rethinking it. Not installed yet. I just blew the rear diff bushing 2 weeks ago.

Hmm, it would be nice if MA had a complete kit to install with all wiring, Thermostatic switchs, relays, temp gauge, etc.

I have the Z1 urethane bushing. They are nice and quite for the most part.

Daelen said that they are working on something like that. A plug and play kit if there is enough demand.

Right now, I'm trying the decide on what LSD I should go with. A Wavetrac, A Cusco RS, or a OS Giken.

Its in the cards, its something I have been pushing real hard for. Once we finish up some other projects in the shop that will be on the docket. Hard parts wise, we can provide anything you may need to wire it yourself.

Well, that depends on you. The Cusco RS will be more clunky, grabby, chattery when turning tight, the OS Giken will have some of that also but very limited for a clutch type diff, and the Wavetrac will be more daily driver friendly. It all depends on what you want to put up with. Only you can answer this.

For me, with the OS Giken when the diff/tires get hot, the diff will bind up because the inside tire won't spin when making a hard turn from a stop.

Daelen gave me a good price on a OS Giken.

Nice set-up, I would suggest a wire mesh screen at the scoop to keep the rocks out.

That thought has crossed my mind a couple times.

Damn this thread lol

Got a couple of pieces for my gauges. A Z1 upper radiator hose piece for the water temp sensor, and a MPI piece for the oil pressure sensor. The threaded male end and the opposite end is metric. The 2 side ports are SAE.

Rusty · 06-20-2017, 04:51 PM

My gauges came in.
