Thanks!!! Already read it like 3,4,5 times. I'm going w/ WhtEvo to the Auto Skills center on base (I'm active duty USAF) to use their tools and lifts.

 

how did your install go? personally, I think this is the best things i've done to my car yet.. i can pull out of any turn without understeer. i'm addicted to driving once again... big thanks to tony @ road race!!

 

Install became a b*tch when we needed to open the outer housing hold the diff. I think we worked that thing for about 3-4hrs before I got it to open. I'll post pics of it later on today. IT was complete destroyed!!!

 

I was able to get those ring gear bolts off w/ a breaker bar by chucking on a vice. I used the gear teeth to prevent it from rotating. But I couldn't put them back on the same way because of the gear teeth angle. It kept slipping off the vice. I ended up just using some red loctite and impact wrenching those suckers on.

5k miles, 7 autocrosses, 21 drag passes, and 1 track event later, I haven't had a problem w/ the diff or those ring gear bolts coming loose.

 

i'm jealous...i had a quaife in my 95 GS-T and it was the best mod i ever did to the car.

 

im jealous that your putting it on, i have mine sitting here in my room, just need to find a good shop to install it, either in denver or phoenix.

 

i have one of those! and i have a stock 04 diff too that is in perfect working condition... if anyone wants it.

 

marksae: Do you find the steering is a lot tighter now? Almost feels as if it doesn't have power steering unless the car is moving.

 

IT"S ALIVE!!!!!!!! Can't wait to see your ride in action again.

 

this is not normal...

 

That doesn't sound normal. After I installed mine, steering felt exactly like it did before. You'd better check to make sure everything was reinstalled correctly.

 

^^^^^^^^^^when drvining aggressively i found my steering to be somewhat looser rather then tighter (more oversteer) so that does not sound normal at all

 

i'd say your axels were put back a lil incorrectly... maybe not lubed or something, cuz that's really all that coulda gone wrong right?

 

Power Steering fluid. I needed some power steering fluid. Its all good now.

 

Puahaha
