Buy all my stuff. Everything. Your car will win.

Steele Jan 10, 2012 05:50 PM

Well like is there going to be anything bad bout doing the swap

tasty danish Jan 10, 2012 05:57 PM

wtf do you mean? uhh.. it costs money and takes time? You need to read more.

Although the 1.8 rear is stronger, it's not necessary to swap it with the motor. You can swap the motor and leave the 1.6 driveshaft, diff, and axles in the car.

Steele Jan 10, 2012 08:53 PM

Yeah but with I've gone threw 2 1.6 rear ends so that's y if I'm going to do the 1.8 I want the 1.8 rear end

90 Turbo Jan 13, 2012 04:47 PM

To swap to 1.8 rear you need the whole rear 3rd member with the stubs and the 1.8 driveshaft. easy and much stronger.

The Torsen is like Vtec. Sometimes it's just way too much for you.

tasty danish Jan 15, 2012 05:36 PM

I'm done cluttering up your thread with any more sales pitches than I already have. It seems clear to me you haven't done any actual research into what you need. But get in my for sale thread or PM if we are actually talking.

Steele Jan 15, 2012 11:38 PM

So I can't send ya a pm So how much we talking for rear end and were kind I find ur for sale stuff?
