gday fellas im about to do my diff as my car started off as an na vl now is turbo. i heard that it has a 25 spline so i will have to change the axels etc is their any other option cheaper? also i was thinking something along the lines of 28 spline detroit locker instead of a mini spool are these hard to get for vls? just i heard some bad stories about mini spools and people crashing, or is it all bullcrap? cheers Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Learn to drive and you will have no worries with any diff!!!

i'll second that quote.. !! extensively. !

does the locker come in on its own or is it a swicth able one

B/W detroits are $1450 just for the head. a mate has one, works good and is legal, hard to justify at that price compared with a LSD. no such thing as a "switchable Detroit locker"

you can get lockers that are swicth able dont know if there detroit though

ARB air lockers!!

thats the one

so mini spools arnt bad at all? i guess for the price of the lockers its either mini spool or lsd? which one is better????

Also i thought detroit lockers engage when you floor it and disengage when you go around a corner? duno where switch came from?

Switchable lockers are for 4WD vehicles when they go off road.

got a mate with a detroit locker in his xr8. Locks up instantly when you jump on the gas (spider gears or sumthin like that spread out) If your a sensible driver its great for going around corners as it turns into a rachet like system with the inner wheel being able to spin slower than the outer wheel. And thus you don't chew out tyres. Although as soon as you use your right foot, the locker kicks in and your all over the shop like a mini spool anyway. I looked into getting one, but for the price i would much rather chew out rear tyres with a mini spool and i wouldn't use the detroit locker to its full extent as i love stepping out around corners.
