S15 is the same as quaife

the torque biasing ratio may be different, weve never been able to locate the ratio of the s15 diff, but thats the only difference

if youre only drifting get a clutch type, anything else, or if drifting isnt the only thing you do even, get a helical

You are correct.

I should have typed something like you can always get a Quaife if you're a |:@113|2. I always forget to mention that the s15 came with one even though it's what I plan on using.

The ratio shouldn't matter to much for most people.

Schweet. Can't wait for the pics.

You should make a bunch of threads in General Chat about it to take some heat off Kenrik.

Heh, I know I did. I was just looking for an excuse to whore pics to those who may not frequent the vert forum.

On a side note if anyone knows where i can find a zenki bumper in one piece (crappy paint is ok) please let me know. My bumper has fell a victim to daily driving a slammed car.

You've already seen it cool guy. Thanks again!

I'm not in the habit of making a bunch of random threads about anything. Kenrik brings his own heat and I don't feel for him. Besides, it's a played-out engine that sucks anyway, right?

My wife left town with the digicam so I have no means as of right now to take pics and post them. I'll have some after NOPI though.

Especially the played-out sucky engine part.

Personally I enjoy pictures of peoples most basic swaps and stuff because it's nice to see how different people do things, little problems they encountered, and how they got the engine bay to look clean (or cluttered). I'm always looking for new ideas.

Nice to see someone that senses sarcasm on the internet.

As for right now,my little problems include wiring up a z32 ignitor and routing some heater core hoses. I also need to get a few parts to complete the swap like a downpipe, which I think I have sourced, i/c piping and I need to decide if I'm going to run my stock radiator and get hoses for that or see if I can find some extra cash and buy the Koyo. I'm sure more stuff will pop up before she's running, but that's where it's at right now.

Hell, at least she cranks!

I have an 89 coupe but it's a little diffrent than the ones here, in fact I havent seen another one like it or maybe I've been searching too lazily. will post pics soon, you could either call it the new trend or butchering just give me a while my digital camera just died on me.

Here are a couple of pics of my dad's grey piggy that I drove to NOPI this past weekend. Bone stock and clean as hell. Still has the factory wing with zero rust.

Here is the pic of my pignose with the mod I talked about not really much but I like it, sorry about the paint I hit a cat. It's in ok shape except the crappy wheels but I'm saving up money for the front end conversion so I dont have any money for them (oh and that oil slick isnt from my car its from my moms old maxima wagon)
