In for the end results and how the quaife performs. One thing though my engine had the identical damage when it blew. Crazy!!!!

What caused Carlanga's motor to give out?

 

Carlos can explain it better than I can (cause he was driving it...lol) but had something to do with a lean spot if I remember correctly. He was tuning on e85 (just swapped over to that fuel). I think he said he got it all on a datalog aswell.

 

hey quick question when you installed the differential ring gear? did use a thread sealant on the bolts coz I didnt use any.. and how did you hold it down so you can torque it to 78 lbs, I used an impact gun on mine lol..

also in the repair manual it was mentioning about the matchmarks on the differential and gear ring, did you do that or you just slapped it on and bolted it down

 

She blew because it got lean, I was tuning with my bro so who knows what he did on the map. Although the fuel system was almost maxed out anyways. Pretty sad though, she had about 35-40k miles and ran awesome. Good thing it happened about a mile from my place and I just coasted her almost all the way home, about 1/4 mile short that I ended up pushing her :-0

LSD has been working great, much better than stock. One thing to take into consideration, I would recommend using whatever decent gear oil you can find and swap it out for a light 75w-90 at 1k miles. I had grinding and stuff around that mileage mark, swapped the oil to a heavy 75w-90 and it worked but still had the occasional hard to shift grind. Finally made the move at 5k miles to a light 75w90 GL-4 gear oil and it has been perfect since.

ACE I don't remember all the details on the marks, I know there was something about it though. I followed the Toyota tech sheets to the T. Oh yeah on the torque, Man Power! Not really, I had my brother torque it while I hold the assembly.

 

Hey nice DIY. Besides the LSD kit from sparks and speed gear, what else did you have to get to finish you install?

 

wild - I remember this thread when it first came out. The limited slip is great!

 

where did you find your lsd at for anywhere in the $700 range??? please let me in on that secret

 

goukisama - that was pretty much it, although the speed gear was not necessary. Only reason I installed it was in case i wanted to add the speed sensor from the Camry to use it as an input to a stand alone.

dlhblh26 - i got it from autotech.com, they are mainly a vw parts company, but they had abunch of them in stock and were going away from quaife to make their own design called wavetrac. It was over two years ago, but you could call and be that lucky guy who got the last one. Heck of you were local, I would give you a hand with the install.

Shoot forgot about this thread, lately I've been busy adding a new stable mate to my street triple

 

that's the kinda azz a guy can just stare at....lol

 

been hearing that a lot lately. No homo :-P

 

shall I tell the story....*cough cough karaoke guy*....LMAO

 

oh Heck no son! lol That ish was funny though.

 

Love me some street fighters. More pics of the triple.
