Welded Center Diff: Yay Or Nay

[john]

What did the car put down on the dyno? Aren't you running a 50 trim? If so, I cannot imagine that much for traction problems. My old car hooked up good with a 60 trim.

Put down 231hp on a 20g untuned. I am upgrading this winter and hopefully putting down alot more then that.

is a welded diff that rough for the streets? chirping tires just to get out of the parking lot?? i'm guessing it's going to be putting stress on the drivetrain.

I have one in my car and i hate it.

[brando]

weld it all i say. just learn how to deal with it. ive welded diffs in everything i have owned and you just have to accomodate and park away from people or swing it wide

Nay. do the 4 spider, you will be very happy with it.

If a 4 spider costs $900, I would definitly skip it. Wish I had my old car to take you for a spin. Even with a decent amount of power an awd dsm will hookup pretty well. Maybe someone with a similar setup to yours can take you for a ride.

Welded center diff makes driving your car a pain in the ass. Say good by to making tight turns, and hello to feeling like your going to break a drive shaft every time you try to make one.

The best money i spent on my car was the $850 for a 4 spider, after having a welded diff for about 2 years. The only good thing I have to say about a welded center diff is it makes it possible to drive your car home after you blow out a u joint.

But if you want a welded diff I have one for sale.

welded = way unstable around corners... I had a welded and the car wanted to oversteer on entrance ramps and stuff... So if you like that sort of thing, you'd probly like it, but otherwise I wouldnt do it.
