i'm going to say yes. the diff should be able to hold a good chunk of power and definately a stock rb26dett.

just get a real differential (see Kaaz, Cusco, Nismo, etc) and youll be fine. the RB26 isnt that powerfull

no the deftforce is completely metal and is 2way with an agressive lock up, i bought it back when i was in the drifting craze but then realized drifting was retarded and hard on the car.works very well and locks the wheels nicely, however it can make the car a bit tricky to drive in the rain and if you arnt careful it will change lanes for you.
