hey all, just possibly after some help

[pieman18]

Hey all, how are we?

im not exactly sure how to go about this so im just going to chuck it out there

first before i ask what i want to ask, i should probly give a bit of background: due to my shite shared driveway situation i cant keep my sprint at my house so it lives in the country generally. at the moment my old man has my daily because his car got smashed by the hail and im once again driving the sprint around again for the next 3 or so weeks. before it goes back to its home in the country side i want to do a few bits and pieces, most of these things i can do on my own, like painting interior, chucking new rims on, flaring guards, etc.

however theres 2 things i need some help with:
i had a trd 2way lsd and a t series diff and tailshaft sittin around and i really want them on my car as im getting sick to death of the stock diff whine, plus i just want them on so i can get some space at my house haha
Im just wondering if anyone on here would be willing to help me out with that at all. im not exactly sure how big a job that is as i have never had to attempt it before, plus theres also the fact that before the diff goes in the 2way has to be installed in the housing obviously.

the other thing i would like is a new exhaust system, just a 2.5 inch straight-through tight under-diff system, 1 singular pipe from extractors to tip. Im also wondering if anyone on here can possibly make one for me for a fee obviously, and i could provide piping and stuff if needs be

i ask on here, aside from the fact that i want to forward my project, i want to possibly get a bit of networking happening with other ae86 owners in melbourne, plus im a bit cash strapped at the minute and shops charge an arm and a leg for shit like this. any help i could get at all with either of these would be awesome guys

anyway, sorry for the huge post haha

thanks again guys
Dan

Keep in mind guys, that going from S to T series, this is going to need a different tailshaft. So obviously (unless he already has a T tailshaft ready) your going to want to source one/make one up before installing the diff if he wants to drive it away that day.

As for the exhaust, if no one else is keen to make it, and considering I think you live in the Caulfield area, take it down to Trufit Exhausts on Warrigal Rd, Moorabin, pretty much opposite bunnings. They've done a few of our exhausts and do pretty good work. Best combination we have found with a 4AGE on a sprinter is 2.5", with a hot dog resonator and a muffler (forgot the brand, but they will know down there what you mean if you quote this number) part number M269.

Best of luck.

thats really generous mate, and i think i might take u up on that offer haha
i wont be going ahead with this for at least 3-ish weeks as i would like the security of having my daily available incase something goes a bit pear shaped, but if ur still happy to do it ill shoot u a pm closer to when it can be done
in my opinion the toughest part will be taking the old diff centre out and putting the 2way in the diff housing, that ill admit i have no idea about
heres my fb 'birdman_1717@hotmail.com' if u wanna get in touch in the meantime or just see what i look like haha

Ive got a t-series tailshaft so thats all sweet, just need oils and additives for when we put the lsd in

cheers Matt for the exhaust tip, if i cant get anyone to knock one up for me ill hit them up and see what they can do
