          What's the story behind these V8 diffs? I see people use them a lot in their projects.

            Short answer is no it is not "plug&play". What some people are doing is taking the center out of the differential & swapping it out with the center of the recipient differential. Do a search on torsen differential swap to see more information.

                its an easy swap as above, take the diff out of the V8 casing and put it into the coupe casing, and use the V8 output flanges. You must check the bearing pre-load but otherwise it is an easy job

                  Apologies in advance.

                  Not wanting to distract from the original poster’s For Sale thread, hopeful it will help it.

                  ...

                  What's the perceived advantage to fitting a V8 rear diff to an ABY B4 ?

                  Thanks.

                    Makes the car more balanced on the power, much less power-understeer and more overall grip, the inside wheels don't spin up so easily
