Yeah. . . If they were drifting around those poles with an open differential, and a KA24E engine, then i'd be impressed. But so far, they're doing it with a welded diff, and KA24DE. . .

I know it can play too. . . It's just not as easy to do with an open diff. And yea, donuts, whatever.

Yeah definitely not, I need a J30 bad. I dont think a welded diff would be that good for a daily.

Yea, if your vehicle is your daily, DO NOT go welded. J30 is a good choice

No I do not, I myself have a stock VLSD. If I had an open diff, I wouldn't personally get it welded. It's just too dangerous, you can easily slip out while turning in the rain etc.

The only use for a welded diff is if you put it on a track vehicle. But for a daily, either get a stock 240sx VLSD, or a J30 diff.

Lol, I know plenty of people who can drift with a kae AND a kade...this is real drifting on a full track, not the FAIL doughnuts you seem to love.

Remember, just pull the ebrake and girls will fall in love with you and take off their clothes.

I'm really sick of people saying you can't DD a welded diff. It has gotten really annoying. I have never heard anyone that has one that complains. Its always the people who haven't had one but think its bad. I have DD a welded diff and I love it. There is too much speculation and not enough personal experience.
