Join the club! I have the same one, but with a blue rubber. It works great.

How does it ride? I remember someone removing it as it was too "harsh" on the Avant

[Bram]

Those vibrations have gone away over time. I do not know why, maybe I got used to it? At least I do not notice them anymore. The blue rubber is street density btw, the red is track/race density.

Soundsgood! vibrations doesnt bother me

i sure understand why it is so expensive, some machining to do on it..

[lind4hl]

Some people will hate me now:mischeif:

This is how the rs is looking right now.. all the sound deadening stuff is going out and also the floor mat, i will paint the floor red after the glued mats are out..

i have been looking on how much weight is going to go away and it is approx 160kg for all stuff together



also my newest thing has come home, A torsen diff 55€ delivered home so the torsen swap will soon continue

[Acidburn]

best thing you could have done trying to get the weight of the car down, they are just soooooooooo heavy, I was in a type 85 coupe the other night and its just soo light compared to one of these, it will be worth it in the end.

[lind4hl]

This is how the weight is looking:

no air condition -25kg?
no sound deadening etc -15kg?
no floormat - 5kg?
GF hood -14kg?
Plastic side windows - 20kg?
bucketseats -30kg?
no ICE at all. -2kg?
lighter battery-3kg?
single mass flywheell-5kg?
different exhaust system- 35kg
roofwindow -15kg?

togheter: -169kg

and oem is 1660 what i have read so approx 1500kg + rollcage is awesome!

what are the advantages with using the torsen and how easily is it fitted with the driveshaft and axles??

[lind4hl]

the torsen will send power to the wheel with most traction, not to the wheel with less traction as oem, but i would not use it for drag.

im making an how-to thread on this search on V8 diff swap and you will find it
