Hi Guys, i need your oppinion. I have a 180SX with a lot of mods the only two essential things for dori i dont have is a LSD and a good Suspension. Actually i have KYB standard replacement coilovers and lowering springs and a open diff. Unfortunately i have only the money for better Coilovers ( Apex Performance) or a LSD (2-Way Kaaz) at the moment. So what do you think i should buy now until i have enough money again at the next summer ? Next summer i could afford a Tein Super Drift which i would prefer over the Apex... It's a hard decision for me .
diff definately if you already have springs and things just go for the dif and get coilovers at a later date
nah, if you wana drift better you need a full bodykit, and some kouki lights.....etc etc or if you have some cash to spend on the car get a decent diff as you already have good (read better than std) suspension anyway. Have you got a decent seat to hold you in and harness too?? and nice steering wheel would be nice too. id go diff over suspension but like Starvos here said, a welded diff is much cheaper and would alloy you to have coilovers and a locked diff but depends on your preference.
I did start with coilovers and weld diff and get 2-way after, but every one got your own opinion, so you need make choice
get a diff. id personally weld it and get coilovers but if thats your two options then get the diff!!!
you already have slightly upgraded suspension, get the diff 2 way is tight and then later you can get the coilovers no point now. one quick question though , when people say weld the diff what exactly is being welded? I know the basics of how a diff works but can seem to wrap my head around what would need to be welded.
weld the planet gears togeather and you have a permenent 3 way diff. That way, wheels are allways turning together rather than one spinning on its own when the power is distributed through the diff.
Thanks guys for so many replies i think i will do as you say and will weld the diff and buy coilovers...
