Gloyale Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I greased them up real good put my boots on and instaled them the only ither problem i couldent fix was the slop in the splines i tryed packing as much grease in there as i could. You only want about 30/40 percent of the cavity packed or it will pop the the boots off from heat/compression 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferp420 Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 Ya those are the ones i only packed the barrings and the splines with as much greese as i could i only scooped a 2 finger glob in the boots i dont think i over filled them they should be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comatosellama Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 No, the Nissan ones are the same as the R200 used in the STi WRXs, even the R180 used in some Datsuns is stronger than our rear diffs. Interchangable tho, with a bit of work. thought the R180 was the sti diff, and r160 was normal and wrx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratman18 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 And the STi came with an R180, not an R200. And the wrx has a regular R160. Yes. STi is R180. No Subaru has come with an R200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comatosellama Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Yes. STi is R180. No Subaru has come with an R200. I wonder if the fozzy xt got those... Throw an arb air locker in on a lifted fozzxt.. I can only dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comatosellama Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Forester xt got the R160 like every other Subaru except for the STi. Weird. Figured since it's an sti underneath they'd do the rear diff that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratman18 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Weird. Figured since it's an sti underneath they'd do the rear diff that way It's not an STi underneath. It's all Impreza but not STi. They have 4.44 final drive. Both 5spd and the auto. And have a VLSD 4.44 R160 rear diff. The motor is similar to what came in an STi, and the 04 you can actually plug and 04 STi ecu right in, of course you'll want to use the other stuff to go along with it. I did this to mine. STi turbo, intercooler, ecu, everything. And then did the full 6 spd swap with brembos and the R180. It was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
