IRS - How much can it handle?
« on: January 24, 2012, 06:34:52 PM »
Hi all

Just wondering how much power(NM/WHP) your car's got and how the differential, suspension, driveaxles and trailingarms are holding up?

Cheers,
Sondre

Damn shame no-one responds. I've heard of people running about 200-250 bhp and they've gotten some problems with their transmissions...

That's exactly my goal aswell, 300 by the end of the summer. What do you mean with the FD comment? Is the 929 transmissions the same as the FD is equipped with? :)

No im running a FD gearbox in my car. Not sure if the non rotary HB gearboxs are the same as 12at ones but i know they are quite a strong gearbox. =)

A bit of info about gearboxes in that thread for you, if you're up for a bit of reading.

I've bought a complete 200sx S13 rear-end.
Will modify that to fit and eventually get a new trans-box aswell. Hopefully that'll handle some abuse.
