NA rear end strength.
ive contemplated it. i have a complete t2 driveline to spare and my car is a 1990 gtu. i was wondering. how darn strong is the na rear end? i mean really? mazda trix sells driveshafts that fit just fine. why would they sell them if the rear end wasnt strong to begin with?
would 300 whp be pushing it?

What are you planning to do with it?
For street use and light track use (autocross/HPDE/etc), I don't think you'll break the NA rear end. For drag use, you'll probably break things.

We've have broken two stub axles on NA diffs, and the diffs are still fine. The stub axles a perfectly designed to break with oil grooves cut in them that cross. Its like they put a dashed line like on toilet paper for it to "tear here"
I don't think you could make it worse design if you tried.
We are running about 235-250 flywheel HP through them on 9.5in wide slicks.

But a t2 diff will alway's be stronger and more practicle for drag.

I wouldn't run a NA rear end with my V8 conversion. Wouldn't even dream about it. But I mean I love drag racing, and street racing and with drag radials that are 235/60/15 and about ATLEAST 450+ wrhp I would be snapping them. But I mean I would put it in and try to sell off the old stuff while you can get something for it before you break it or something you know what I mean
