    Default Aftermarket diff ratio for GX71

    Car is coverted to 1JZ with R154.. Recently blew the standard diff and have decided on a TRD 2-way.

    Is a daily driver. Would like to sit around 3300-3500rpm at 110

    Anyone know the standard ratio off hand?

    Being a G powered car any diff is likely.

    Going by those revs and assuming stock tyres you are running around a 4.5-4.8 : 1 diff.

    The plate on the firewall will tell you the factory diff, assuming its still in there.

    Be careful ordering a new diff, as some GX71's had G series diffs, where as most had F series.

    Ok thankyou.

    Running low profile 15 inch tyres..

    So just to make sure, 4.1 is going to give a higher speed at given revs compared to a 4.3?

    Is it worth looking for a centre, or should we be looking for a new housing?

    Diff is really to small to put any decent amount of power through it.
    But an F-series diff won't bolt up to your crossmember.

    Try and source an F-series diff/crossmember from an MX73 Cressida and see if that bolts in.
