    Default aw11 diff

    hey yall just a quick question before i start pulling my gearbox apart.
    i have an aw11 mr2 with a single spinning diff, now is it possible to weld the diff or is there any other way of completely locking it, it will be my track car so i dont care much about driveability i just want it locked...
    any help would be great cheers...

    It can be done. I found this on google.

    "as for the welded diff, that's what my father did in an AW11 rally car (a tricky car on snowy stages). It wasn't bad at all on the road. Honestly, it was more aggrovating (sp?) to drive a car with really stiff suspension on the road than it was to drive a car with a welded diff. The welded diff will hurt turn in somewhat, but that can be overcome with set-up (stiffer rear sway bar, softer front bar, etc, etc) and driving style."
    As you'd expect, it a pretty sill thing to do
