to be honest i have no idea what the z20 has, just have in the back of my mind from 10 years ago that they wern't interesting

i was thinking along the same lines, if wheel bearings are same diameter i might be able to use my vanette housing

i've been looking at organizing a gearbox rebuild, still debating what to do with motor, but yeah over the next few months it will have all new drivetrain

whats wrong with the engine?

Pretty sure comp is down on 3 and/or 4maybe? I think he mentioned it needed rings and bearings?

looking at diff stuff again

bluebird and vanette H190 use same axle bearings, but check out the difference in the axles!!!




good news is it looks like i can shorten the bluey axles to the right length, and the wheel bearings being the same I can probably use the vanette housing in the car already, as long as the bluebird centre will bolt into it

fun fun, i have to pick up the bluey center from my brother before i can do final measurements

Massive difference. Does he have the blinked housing to.fit if the blue bird centre doesn't fit h190 housing?

Or will you just use h190 to match your LSD?

yeah thats more what h190 axles should look like, the other ones look like they are only h165 size

put it back together with some NOS koni adjustables... they cool! manufactured oct 77

there is a scraping noise which seems to be disc/drum on backing plate, but otherwise all stations are go again

got a lead on a place near work they may be able to do diff convert too (and they have installed a topgear torsen before too)... so things are looking up!

Great to hear, now for motor rebuild too?

gee man, you have a knack for highlighting the negative in an innocent way

ME: yay! my car runs again!

MIK: yeah! but dont forget the motors fecked

.ah I thought you were doing it all at once ?
