rednose RNS10S Donating Members 2,229 Member For: 18y 4m 1d Gender: Male Posted 16/08/12 11:21 AM Share Posted 16/08/12 11:21 AM (edited) I am also interested in one of these from Harrop. Would they suit circuit work? I got blag flagged twice today at Wakefield Park with slicks on the back, closing in on 1min08's. The standard diff cannot cope even with the breather/catch can set up I currently have.What oil is required?Interested to know if you have tried the Amsoil yet and if so how did it compare to the others?Also I was told that if doing circuit work the Kaaz is a better option but must be setup correctly.

Was fine at Marulan but at Wakefield for the long left hander fish hook, diff oil was leaking onto the exhaust causing a heap of smoke. Don't want to fork out big $. How much is the Kaaz?

How much is the Kaaz?Give Con at Diff Technics a call as I did not get a price but I'm sure he said it was around the same price as a true trac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car is capable of 7's!Slicks are the cause of the diff overheating too I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
