    Limited Slip diff

    I would like to use an LSD in the rear diff of my S1 project.

    At the moment i'm using the WR quattro non-torsen g/box and rear diff, which I feel works better in my situation than the MB quattro torsen g/box, which i've tried.

    Can anyone suggest which Audi model I should be looking for to get a rear LSD and will I need to change the g/box as well as the diff ?

    Is there a LSD kit that can be fitted into the quattro rear diff ?

        Has no one on here fitted the V8 diff ?
        I would really like to know whether it will work with the UR quattro WR g/box

              Surley you reuse the UR crown wheel unt pinion, ratio stays the same.

              I am sure the torsen part will fit. both S2 and UR diffs are physically the same except for the bolt on mountings.

              L7apk, buy one if it don't fit I will buy off you for my RS2:mischeif:
