Hey guys thinking bout finding a doner car to upgrade brakes, struts, transmission on my 72 510. Looking at a 79-83 zx. Can I also use the diff from a zx in a 510? And do you know what the ratios are, l think I want a 4:11 with a zx 5 speed.

Hello again, I've been frying my brain and after hours of searching and reading and re reading thread after thread, I can't find the answer to what I'm looking for.

 

I just brought the drive shaft shops CV conversion kit with the c clip "subaru Sti r180" axle stubs. (Should be here this week!)

My question is what is the spline count on a newer r160 LSD from a 05 legacy gt?

I thought the legacy gt's came with an r180 but that was only the spec b! Might need to source another diff?

I have a Subi R180 helical if you need one.

You might try looking around on Subaru forums.  Alot of guys are swapping STI parts onto Forresters, Legacys, etc so I'm sure there should be some info for you out there.
