no not 6spd a 6 gear diff for more strength not 6 gears as in 6 spd lol look at the pics top is a normal diff and the bottom is with the added 2 extra spider gears(one on each side) i have blown 5 diffs in the capri because i was running to much boost they would last about a month or so the boom!! lol roll back time! lol the pics are not the completed diff,i put plates on the shafts that are sticking out on each side of the diff to hold the shafts more steady but they are also welded to the other shaft on the inside,once you do this its permanent,no taking it apart lol i just got tired of blowing diffs and this i hope will be a permanent fix, so if it blows again thsi diff will be trashed and start over againLast edited by turbospoolin; 03-31-2011, 01:31 PM.schmlick blang

The diffs blow from too many one-wheel wonders. Burnouts are hell on them. The diff holds up fine to high boost.1991 Capri XR2 "GTXR2" BPT AWD Bastardization/conversion

yep you are exactly right the spider shaft get over heated by the one small gear spinning on it and then galds to it then causing the entire shaft to rotate snapping the roll pin and then ultimately shooting the shaft through the trans case yep crap situation lol but dam i loved burn outs but i never really tried to on purpose the dang thing would spin at the touch of the throttle, but i had fun anyway lol 24psi didnt help it any tho lolLast edited by turbospoolin; 03-31-2011, 06:29 PM.schmlick blang

UPDATE!!! hey guys the turbo 323 lives!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have finally got the swap almost done!!! i did decide to go with the stock turbo seeing that it did work fantasticlly and with the 323 being a wwaayy lighter car, i shouldnt need to turn the boost up as high as i did when the engine was in the heavier capri. but yes the actual install was super easy didnt take but about 20 mins lol, here are some pics as of now,[IMG][/IMG]
