Does a s5 T2 vert and coupe have different diff\'s?
My fc3s and fc3c are from 89 and I drifted my vert yesterday but the back would\'nt lock.

You might find its an open diff, although you can fit the FD torsion internals into the FC housing :)

nearly all uk model FC diffs are open diffs, so wont lock, regardless of coupe or conv,  very few FC\'s had LSD as standard
400 BHP - 650 KG\'s = 616 BHP Per Ton of Rotary Power

That\'s the way to do it! :Thumbsup!

And even if it was an LSD I think it was a viscous sort, so nothing amazing

if you\'re planning on drifting it (seriously) i wouldn\'t bother with the fd torsen diff

I took the fc up to Santa Pod on Saturdayfor the DWYB. Never done it before and thought it would be a laugh:rollin

Being a JDM FC TII thought I might struggle to get both wheels spinning, but in fact it didn\'t cause a problem at all.

Had a great time although I need a lot more practise:driving A guy there called Lex took in my car to show me what it could do and OMG what an awesome driver and car of course:chat

Anyone know why the LSD didn\'t cause a problem?





Me after a bit of tuition (Thanks Lex)

dthebuk

well if its got an LSD you\'ll be fine. Its NOT having an LSD that causes the problems.

Being a jap car, it could very well have a vlsd, someone may have put the fd lsd in there. Either way, doesn\'t look like an open diff at all!
