Big ups to 7oxin for all that info on f series
Has anyone got a difinitive answer on what needs to be done to the R31 diff to get it to fit in the AE86, none of the my firend told me that his second cousin twice removed said that it bolts straight up/you need to cut the diff in too 4 pieces.
Also what is the maximum power that anyone has run through any of these diffs R31/F/G and has anyone every broken one?
Thanks all
Your friend .. is wonderful .. but not correct
For an R31 Diff (like all the others .. E/F/G-series) my guess would be:
-Tailshaft (Driveline services and the like will make you a nice 3", single-piece unit for 400-500 clams)
-Remove all mounts from R31 diff. Weld AE/KE mounts onto R31 diff in appropriate positions (using a jig to do this properly is the best bet).
-Sort out handbrake lines
-Sort out brake lines
And i dont think any of us have broken an F/G/R31 .. i think Josh Young (1UZFE AE86) broke an axle on an F-diff .. but that's about it .. and he works that car over pretty heavily
R31 kids POUND on their diffs at 200+rwkw and don't have many dramas .. and that's in a MUCH heavier car .. safe to say you wouldn't break anything in one of those in a hurry, and if you do, a whole new diff is like $100..
And a G-series is just plain gay. It is a MONSTER of a diff that shouldn't be used for anything other than drag-racing, far far far far too overkill for an AE/KE.
ive got an f series from a mk2 corona, run moved mounts, trd 2 way for supra/altezza, should be good for a fair bit of power or torque. Contrary to what people say, the narrowest of all the f series, which is what i have, is still a bit wider than a t series, id say about 20mm a side, the tarago f series is about 40mm a side. The g series you get from tarago and early hilux they are somewhere inbetween. They are all similar strengths

I'm not sure what width the ae86 t series diffs are, but my mx13 diff is 14mm longer in the housing than the s series, and disc conversion adds a few more mm since the discs are thicker than the drums. I forget the exact measurements, I'll run a tape over it tonight and post a definitive result.
PS. Golberg, MX83 are G series. The grande's are LSD as you mentioned.
This link has some usefull specs.
1125 rings a bell for t series
