Hey Guys,

Been doing my head in trying to find a replacement axle for my Kouki diff.

Can i use any other axles ?

I tried zenki axles they are different, so no good.
Tried old school celica axles and no good either ?

Any ideas or options ?

Cheers

nope. you need ae86 kouki axles, no others will fit without major modification/dollars.
pretty sure Just JDM Imports in the sponsor section had some available last i saw.

it is possible to modify e series axles to work. but its a shit and fiddly job. just buy a kouki one.

E series are so close to fitting that it's bloody annoying they don't.

Another alternative is to modify the axle splines in the diff centre to match E series. I've heard Road and Track in Ipswich can do it, but have never had it confirmed. Again alot of work though.

kaibichee (sp?) has at least one kouki axle for sale.

Regarding Hen's post, I've seen a post from Terry on the topic saying he can do this.

Are the left and right axles the same length in the kouki rear disc diff ?
