    May be selling my SuperAYC rear diff, but what's it worth?

    I might be going mechanical rear LSD, but a lot of it hinges on how much I can get for my SuperAYC. Any interest to anyone? Or even any suggestions of what it's worth?

    I turned down an SAYC diff at £350 because it was in Sheffield, I am in Manchester so petrol would have been another about £100 on top.
    Which was not worth having for me.

    But you do see them up for sale at £500+ but don't know if they sell at that price.

    Bye for Now!

    I suppose one question should be, how far can the S-AYC diff be pushed before it breaks?

    This is true. I'd also like to know. My bigger concern is the impact of hard gear changes rather than nicely delivered high torque. Trouble is I don't really want to find I need a new pump and then shell out for that to just try and blow up my SAYC. That said, I'd be interested to know what the difference in handling is between SAYC and mech diff. The AYC wasn't working at all when I got it, and once I'd got it running, the difference was quite noticeable on turn in. An LSD will be different again - less about turning the back end in and more about putting power down across the axle when one side is unloaded.

    I dont think a Legnum/Galant will ever be able to induce shock loading/hard gear changes on an SAYC as an Evo can due to weight issues. So if it were me Id be looking at what Bhp figures on Evos do the SAYC say enough is enough?
    Still here somewhere........

    I still have whiplash..

    JN's clutch is extremely unforgiving. It's either engaged or disengaged, there's no middle ground.
