differential compatibility?
so i found a GTU FC at the bone yard and from what i've read this car came with the 4:30 gear ratio in the diff,
so the question is, would this third member swap into my FD? what would i need to do it? ring and pinon compatible?
i gotta figure something out, my auto fd is a PIG off the line.

The third member is different because the FD has a Power Plant Frame. The ring and pinion may be compatible but I don't know for sure. Might want to research on the GTU more because I believe it just has a regular TII rear.
All of the automatic RX's are terrible off the line, I sure don't miss it. You might want to look into the manual swap, it really changes the way you think about your car...

Also the GTU and GTUs was only a 7" ring gear.
Only the T2 and FD diffs were 8" ring gear.
FC was a long snout pinion gear and FD was short snout. They are not interchangeable.
The FC T2 LSD unit and vice versa FD LSD can swap back/forth into either diff. You do need to shim/space them properly. S4 T2 LSD is the strongest factory unit out. Kazz is basically the same as it but is made from better/beefier material in the case and also thicker/larger clutch packs.
