slipsittin Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Well I got the codes from the L300 van my LSD came from and the van the diff came from and they are not even close to each other. The L300 unit I got was from an 86 model and is the same diff I'm told that the turbo EX Lancers came out with. The only markings on the LSD Diff Head are G926 which means nothing to me. Are L200 ones bigger as this crown wheel is about an inch bigger in diameter. Can anyone shed any light on the subject??? Or am I changing diffs again Cheers, Corey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unclejake Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 In barely related news I looked underneath a Nissan mistral last night and OMG! At a glance they seem to have the same enormous and unbreakable diff head as a Nissan Patrol but are about two feet narrower. A Patrol diff will take 400-500hp I believe and the Mistral doesn't look as wide as a Hilux (but they are six stud) so they could be worth checking out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipsittin Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 Thanks for that UJ. I will see which way I'm going but I have been offered a b2000 diff housing for free and it is also 6 stud Never mind its character building stuff Anyone want an l200 lsd Head???

A Patrol diff will take 400-500hp I believe and the Mistral doesn't look as wide as a Hilux (but they are six stud) so they could be worth checking out wild stab but i think the rear diffs on the mistrals are somthing silly like 9.25" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No use to Corey but it is worth a mental note to anyone else trying to get a big strong diff into a narrow car.Mistrals are horrible but as an organ donor they might have a use.

smokin' joe Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Well I got the codes from the L300 van my LSD came from and the van the diff came from and they are not even close to each other.The L300 unit I got was from an 86 model and is the same diff I'm told that the turbo EX Lancers came out with.

Or am I changing diffs again Cheers, Corey just to prove i have done a search, have also asked other peoples thoughts on the matter, now i throw it to the masses (who may ACTUALLY know). currently have '87 L200 and am wanting to gear it up, real high (3.5:1 or similar) as i suspect it will be running a 4.2-4.6:1 currently, which is too short for putting a V6 + 5 speed in it. will the CW+P from a Starion/A175 EX-T or any thing else for that matter get me the required result?? Did the L200 come out as a 2wd with 6G72 as a factory option?? as long as i can get it to within 10% of accurate, i can gear it up further by fitting mid/high 16" tyres. anyone????

OSM Garage Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Fuel would set this straight if im incorrect, but i think the starions may have come with the 3.545 ratio diff. If the A175 came out with this ratio, then the crown wheel and pinion will fit inside the 10 bolt L200 diff heads. I cant quote that starion CW & P will fit inside the 10 bolt diff head. Ive been told they can, but with a bit of machining. Dont know how true this is. Some V6 Tritons did come out with the 5 speed option, but finding one will prove difficult. Unless you know some bro's!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokin' joe Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 have been in touch with Fuel, but couldn't shed too much light on commercial diff interchangability. did v6 triton come out 2wd?? have had plenty of 4wd through work, but all the 2wd were 4G64 powered.

fuel Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Starions come 3.909 also, I've got a 3.909 Starion LSD diff in mine. V6 2WD Tritons don't seem to exist here in NZ - I'm trying to track down a gearbox for one! They do exist in the states as the D50 or Mighty Max in the late 80s/early 90s shape and they have a KM145 gearbox which isn't too strong. The 4WD V6 Triton uses the V5MT1 gearbox which is also what the Pajero 4WD uses - it's a heavy cast iron steel cased sucker though, and I am unsure if there is a 2WD version of the V5MT1 I can rob the rear tail section from in order to lose the transfer case, or if I could attach the V6 bellhousing to the 2WD box (the KM145 doesn't have a seperable bellhousing, just like the Sigma/L200/Starion KM132 and KM132B gearboxes).

OSM Garage Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I have only been in and seen 1 2wd V6 triton in my time, and it ripped shit up! Good ol Vector company vehicle!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProZac Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 You'd have to find a really late model starion with the bigger diffs, think 87 onwards. Look for 5 stud ones, then check they have 6 bolt cv's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
