cheers

just uploading some more pics of box and proof there is an LSD in there (its the same box i did the guide on to fit it)

I can post it on a palette for about £60, but if its not too heavy i might just be able to wrap it and post it normally as really its not that big, also yes it is a potential bargain, but at the same time its priced cheap because why the hell wont the cup come out? Its a bit of a gamble on the buyer, but i sell it on the basis that if you buy it i can 100% confirm the diff is fully working and if you put a 5th gear back on the box, the box works too, all be it crunchy as hell on 2nd and 3rd. I have tried bars on it and all sorts to get it to pop out with no joy, i think the next step is to w

Item For Sale: Quaiffe limited slip differential (LSD) Item Condition & Description: LSD was working great when removed from car in gearbox I am selling this LSD with a gearbox, however its cheap for a reason The diff is fine inside the box, however I had taken the box off with the intention to change it as it was crunching in 2nd and 3rd (Worn Syncros). Problem is that I cant get one of the CV cups of the gearbox, one side has come out no problem, but for what ever reason the other cup is stuck fast. This means i cant split the box to remove the LSD! I have heard this happening to a

smoke coming out of the breather is going to be ringlands, take a look at our pistons and check the skirts (bit between the two rings) you will probably find its got a crack and if you tap it it will break off. Check all 4

dont buy one which you cant see running is my advice, there are quite a few duds lurking out there which have been pulled out of cars already, so buyer beware. Best bet is to see it running in the car first before its taken out, do a compression test on all 4 cylinders. You want a minimum of 150psi with anything up to about 185psi on a mint engine, do this test when the engine is warm not cold. Check for mayo under the oil cap to ensure head gasket hasn't gone, look for oil leaks, particularly around the crank seals, one side of the flywheel where the gearbox attaches and the other side

dam beat me to it lol

i know they are not interchangeable from when i did mine, so if memory serves me right i believe the pickup is longer on the stock 5e, so one would assume the sump is deeper. You can get around this problem though by shimming the oil pressure relief valve, i put a thin washer behind mine to increase the oil pressure. If you had the tools though i would say its worth tapping the original sump for the oil return and use the pickup designed for the block, makes more sense surely!

its because the engine is tiny in a starlet, 1.3, the RS is a 2.5 litre turbo which is more or less twice the size. This means hell of a lot more fuel/air so you are much more likely to get unburnt fuel etc in the exhaust which is ignited, causing the overrun popping.

nope its all one piece, some bits do come off with plugs but nothing that will help you in the engine bay. You have to unplug it all from the car.

its like someone is chopping my balls off selling it!!

Great news, wish i could have been there

Yeah i might just sell it working see how it goes

hey tommy, i have got a 5e that is up for sale, fully forged.

I cant seem to make my mind up on either selling the boxy as a whole car, just because its plain easier. Or if i should break it. I am not sure how much someone would pay for it either, i was thinking in the region of about £3800 as a realistic figure, i doubt anyone would go over 4k in this market for a startlet, but if i break it i could probably make another 2k on top of that. Arggh its such a pain, what are you thoughts on its value, its a bit awkward to judge it as its custom as a bitch! Taggy

Yeah i had a long chat with the mrs about it last night and we both decided although i have spent many many hours on it and i love it to bits, i need to sort out my finances and in fairness i want to do a kp60 next, so its a good excuse
