    Default What gearbox and dif should i be running?

    Hey guy's, ive just had my 4agte rebuilt with piston rods cams etc, it should be putting out around 350rwhp when i get it tuned. I was wondering if i upgraded my t50 gearbox to a w58 would it still be strong enough? and i have a stock t series dif with a welded center what would be the best option for a upgrade? Cheers.

    The W box should be pleanty, wou will probably want to run a F or G series, G series come up cheap and heaps of ratios but same for F series but don't seem to be as cheap when they do come up unless it's the one that is about 20-30mm a side wider, my hilux is only 10mm a side wider than a T series and cost me $250 to buy the diff and put mounts on it.

    Box: W58 is a good option. W5* would probably do too. Could always go Hollinger if money is no object though.
    Diff: F series, G series, R31 are all options.

    This has been discussed to death on here and other places around the net. A search will turn up hours of enlightening reading, after which you can decide what is best for your car, your aims and your budget.
