meh, torsen is not that great for drift. Locker or 2 way clutchpack is the go.
was refering to the boxed section for the upper trailing arms built into the rear seat well.

he sproably useing a detriot locker or torsional style LSD as he uses a hilux diff

Heres a pik of my turbo setup.
Trust TD06L2 turbo kit set to make an easy 400hp

sorry to sound so cynical but it sounds like ur building an s13 silvia except ur using a sprinter chassis. with all this goin in ur really not gunna have much weight advantage and u'll have a higher gravity centre vs s13. the only advantages i can see to this approach is possibley the shorter wheel base (which some debate isnt even an advantage) and cheaper tires but otherwise it sounds alot like some novalty project to waste a few dollars. im not digging or startin shit but i really cant see much point in this. if u wanna really neat hachi run it with a t series dif and an NA 20v cuz at least then you'd get the fun value
my 2cents
Yep pretty much. Everyones got there own opinion and they are entitled to that. I built an s13 before and im in need of a change. Just give me some time, it will all come together.
2nd that. the whole point of a 86 to me is the car is what it is, a na high rev'n bigger scale go kart which gets twitchee in the rear under brakes, oversteers coming out of corners a hand fully of fun. not a 400hp rocket that stays on rail going around corners. but thats just me
