Welding my open diff

[ma71supraturbo]

If you have the money, get a nice 2-way. If not and your car is used mainly for events, I'd weld an open diff (just make sure to have a spare diff handy because it will eventually break)

But, like others have said, this won't be a pleasant daily driver. To quote IJ, it will be rather "agricultural..."

Tractors have lockable diffs

Tractors drift too

Is that what's called grip? That's like the one where tank drifts, pretty cool

alright, i'll look into just getting a 2 way since this is my daily driver

just weld it, it's much more fun. My friends 350whp 240 coupe has a welded diff and it's a blast to drive. Turning is a little scary at first but you get used to it. I heard that a 2 way is pretty much the same. I'm going to be welding my lsd if I can, if not I'm going to buy a open diff and weld it.

or run less friction modifier...

2 way is forced to give in corners, sot hey wear out...

play lot of gran turismo with a 1 way and a 2 way and tell me which you like better. I bet it will be the 1 way...
