Jason fitted the GTS engine and transmission to his 1200, but not the diff. He used a 77 Corolla SR5 rear with LSD center.

yes i think stock 12'' rims will fit perfectly if they look inside of the car whit stock diff.

RE510: my diff its still not shortened but its like 5.5 inches larger than the stock one im going to cut it 6 inches if i can

Ok.You think I can still fit my 12" stock rims ?

thanks mpower

guess i just didn't look hard enough
how many mm have you shortened it down to?

read this photo comments http://datsun1200.com/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=22280

been thinking to swap one myself
does anyone know the ratios available?

mpower: couldnt find the pics you were talking about!

i have that setup and i love it but it needs some shortening cause im using 0 offset rims but with +45 offset it will fit perfectly and yes you need to cut all the brackets off but its worth it have a look into my album i have some pictures from underneath

as in
?

Lemonhead or 1200coupe have used that rear axle in their rally car as they have good lsd options, double row wheel bearing , etc.

Has anyone installed a 86 GTS toyota twin cam rear diff. with disc brakes on their Datsun ? I got one with 430 gears (posi) and was thinking of shaving all the brackets off and installing it to my coupe !!!
