I wouldn't think you'd have to upgrade for a mild A14 unless you're looking for a LSD or locked diff. Stock should be fine.

Oh really, cheers that's good to hear. I was just thinking about looking into a diff that's better than the original and get better performance.. I'm planning at doing some more engine mods to it down the track.

In my car I have an A15 with a bit of work done to it (1608cc)and I am using a H145 stock diff with H145 4.11 alloy centre. Just avoid dropping the clutch and it will last quite well.

I don't really have any specific details Ed, Sidedraught had the engine built so best to ask him.
All I know is 1608cc, built by Stewart Wilkins I think and head by Jeff Taylor.
Motor was built for 160hp.
Hope this helps, Levey.

a H165 with 4.11's has put up with 140hp at the wheels from my race spec L20B, complete with R spec tyres and burnouts at hillclimbs, leave it in there until it breaks!

EDIT claimed 160hp at the flywheel not the wheels, oneday I will get it back on the dyno and see what it really does at the wheels.
