WHAT'S THE DIFF Can I get different ratios - Aussie V8 | Holden - Ford

bad-blue-dog · 24-04-2008, 01:29 PM

OK brains trust, you helped me with the ABS line locker problem, can you help with diff ratio.
Our local drag strip is only 1/8th mile so I need every thing to hapen quickly. Crossing the line and only changing into third is no good, I want to be in top gear(3) pulling about 5000 rpm. I have estimated that I need a ratio of about 4:1 to make this happen. Dose anyone know where to get diff gears from that are close to this.
P.S: The car is a 1992 VP v6.
Cheers.

i think you can get 4.11's that came in the skyline borgwarners

yes. 4.11 will be closest.

you can also get 3.9s, but that's probably a bit tall for what you want.

Nissan Pintara have 4.11's, Skylines are usually 3.7's or 3.9's.

Can anyone tell me for sure if the diff centre in the VP series II IRS is definatly borgwarner therefore being compatable with the nissan centres. I didn't realise that the car was IRS until I picked it up.
The ABS is gone, my local parts store sorted me out with a B&M linelocker and all the lines I needed to hook it up.
Cheers.
