Which diff?
CraigJ - 25/3/07 at 11:38 AM

Im going to build my own chain diff but was wondering which car diff im best off using? The engine is a xjr1300 with 125-130bhp and about 90lb-ft torque (when finished) and the finished car will weigh about 350kg.

Im after a compromise between acceleration and top end.

pretty much any diff from a car in the last 15 years will work then since your ratio will be done by the sprockets you use rather than the diff its self
