I noticed that your sig has a power rating of 292rwkw on 16 psi but u havnt dynoed it as stated in one of the posts?? was that the power from the previous owner?

also im pretty sure this car was advertised on carsales and was in Vic some time ago cant remember when,did you advertise it or buy it from there? I only ask as I remembered the ad and the pictures like your sig? also if I remember correctly had a plenum etc and claimed 300+ power..? He was asking around the 28k mark...?

buds by the way,if it has all the goodies its as good as an og typhoon anyway,well done.

It'll always be a futura. A tough one, still a futur though.

sorry yeh I have barely been on here and I originally bought the car from him at the 292rwkw point with the stage 2 kit, but things got messed up through my finance company so it fell through...and he offered me the car for less without the plenum, intercooler, plenum and battery relocation kit but I never got around to changing my sig...

there is nothing on the car apart from the diff that isnt typhoon so whatever anyone thinks I got an amazing car for an even better price so im stoked! :D

Don't get that. It isn't an LSD.

Need something like this.

FG one will still fit though.

edit: do you have 4spd or 6spd auto?

if 4 speed you need 3:43 ratio if 6 speed you need 2:73.

cheers, is there much difference in terms of strength between the fg and ba/bf diffs?

I got a 4spd. only thing with the one you showed me is its just the diff without the axles

you wouldnt think the axles would be any different though between models though? id save alot of mulah if I just need to change the diff itself and diff bush

You wont be able to get a M86 diff from an FG with 3.43 ratio which is what you need.

Best bet is to give FTG auto salvage a call, they should have everything you need.
