too much power for stock diff
Does anyone recommend a good aftermarket diff that's not too noisy and aggresive on the road when manouvering ? I went strip today did a burnout and tore off the main shaft in my diff which was sitting on the ground. I have a bridgeported hks to4r turbo and need something that can cope with the power.

93BlackFD did a nice write up on how to install an 87 T2 diff
A lot of members opt for a kaaz but complain that its noisey and clunky
mazdaspeed and cusco sell 2 way diffs, but probably cost exactly one kidney and a good arm.
All are clutch type diffs...

If you try the Cusco, then we can compare notes with my Kaaz.
My diff has got a lot less clunky at low speed, now that I have changed the diff oil over to Castrol Syntrax.
Good luck in your quest brian

Thanks for reply everyone.
Hi Max I have a frined in Hatchwarraen who has a cusco diff on his 99 spec car. We swapped cars last year for around 2-3 weeks adn it took some getting used to. Once doing around 10-15 mph it was ok but at lower speeds it was very clunky and noisy, however it was very managable for street use.
