What is better?
 
Hello, i,m the owner of a Miata 1.6 (no LSD) in Spain, i want to ask a question about kaaz.

Please, What is better:

-Mount Group 1.8 (bearings, shaft and housing transmión) + kaaz.

-Put only the diff kaaz in my 1.6, The question I have is if it,s endure well, bearings etc..


Sorry for my bad english.

Thank you very much.
A greeting.

Swap a 1.8 diff or do you plan on staying stock?

toyo_ 10-12-2012 05:29 AM

My idea is stay stock but i don,t now (stock+kaaz) if parts not endure

Thanks!

Buying that new will be pricy, i'd rather swap in one from a 1.8 and move on.

Ok, thanks!! ;)

Yeah, the 1.6 is weak and -can- break even under stock power. Upgrade to a torsen from a 1.8 car and fuck bitches.

Yes, swap to a 1.8 rear end then get a diff for that. 1.6 ring gears are soft.

hahah "And fuck bitches"; yeah i agree though. i'd go with the 1.8 torsen... not worth risking it!

Don't waste money on an LSD for the 1.6. Get a 1.8 Torsen (or better yet a 1.8 Open and put a Kaaz or OS Giken in that).

You can find cheap open 1.8 rears at junk yard. Go for that and put kaaz in... Don't forget to get also 1.8 drive shaft & half shafts!
