Well my turbo rear end makes all kinds of noises. Its hard for me to find a replacement for a good price in a turbo but easy for a non turbo. Would a non turbo rear end hold up just as good? I already know i have to drill new holes on the diff to match to the turbo driveshaft and i know the gear ratios are different .But i would like to know what else if differen? Thanks fellas

Gear ratios probably won't be different, the more common ratio is 4.10. Double check your NA diff.

It's going to be a downgrade to use an NA rear end, that's why there are more NA rears then TII rears.

Rebuild your old one or wait to find a good runner and stop being cheap.

$500 dollars is the cheapest rear end i found. That would make anyone seem cheap. Thats alot of money. Im sure my ring and pinion gears are bad and mazdatrix wants a little over $500 bucks for just the gears alone. Im just trying to think of a easire way. Also i cant find a site or manual that shows you the specs when rebuilding the rear end.

initial D is REAL!

I think people sell used jdm rear ends. Im not sure how much they go for, but i think under 500 for sure.

I would take your rear cover off first and make sure its your ring and pinion

you would need to switch out the axels and get a custom drive shaft to use the NA rear end. you are wasting your money, the NA rear will not hold up long with a turbo engine. get a used diff for $150-$250 and be done with it.
