Taggy Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 You just need to use your standard gear oil, it makes now difference with a Quaiffe diff as its a Geared Helical unit with no clutch plates. I have got one too and they are brill, just stick your standard Toyota recommended gear oil in and you will be fine.Craig Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mattyD Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 nice one mate seeing as though you are a user (of the quaife ) how would you say the perform against understeer and starts off the line etc???? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sam2kk8 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 you still get wheelspin and torque steer with the diff, its the bends and twisties it comes out to play!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Taggy Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Its good, runs totally silent you cant tell its in there, i found that it actually cancels out torque steer completly when you boot it off the line, its when you take your foot off the throttle it can have a tendency to snap as the power bias switches wheels.It is also ever so twitchy driving flat out in a straight line, nothing bad but you can feel the torque bias as it shifts. This is only ever so slightly and is barely noticeable, you just learn to drive it.Its the best mod i bought for my car, on track it made the car into a dam monster, no more wheel spin lost power through spinning one wheel in a corner, its literally balls out everywhere I woudnt even look at a friction plate lsd such as cuso etc, pile of crap, there clunky, gotta use the correct oil or you knacker them, and noisy, jerky ergggh never read anything good about the friction plate ones, i would avoid!lol, you might soon be seeing a black glanza flying round corners then Quote Link to post Share on other sites
