Like I said ,though, I wouldn't weld it up, because it's already a helical style posi. which by many standards is the best type of posi. you can get. Yes, of course, not for you drifters, but time attack, autocross, and track days there's nothing better.
Damn, I hoped it would be the other way.. Need to get me a 6-speed tranny, always thought my gears are sooooo long if u know what i mean, ~85 topspeed at 2nd gear and ~115 in 3rd.
Got a good price at the s15 diff so might as well use it! thanks for the good answer!
