FS: welded rear differential R160 4.444 FDR

Lachlan · 06-17-2006, 05:15 PM

Looking to get $400. I got this rear differential with my version 3 STi swap. It's in an R160 with 40/9 (4.444) final drive ratio, so it would be great for an auto RS, Forester, or JDM swap tranny. I'm not sure what brand it is (obviously nothing OEM); I thought it was a mechanical with a high braking torque, but after applying 100 ft-lbs to it manually I'm 95% sure it's welded. This is great for Rally-x or drifting (the car was set up with RWD for drifting when I got it). Most of the time you won't notice it's welded, except taking slow short turns such as parking and intersections when it binds a little bit. I enjoyed using it in Rally-x and it wasn't bad with snow tires, but with summer tires it gets a little annoying. So if you have a dedicated rally-x or drift car, or if you just want to suck it up on tarmac, this is a good diff for you!
