upgrade diff for sr20det

have bought a sr20det to put in my 610 180b wagon. Any ideas as to what would be the best diff upgrade, a shortened hilux/hi ace or other variants? Or is it ridiculous to put irs in with rs200 diff etc?

Re: su Carb tuning

the pipe that has the screw affecting its inlet, behind the dashpot cylinder. And then separate to that is the flat head head screw visible on the inlet manifold.

su Carb tuning

Does this hose affect the idle of the su carbs? It's not mentioned in the manual I have, any input would be great. The screw is not screwed in very far at the moment, is it affected by the screw in the middle of the inlet manifold which is connected to the small metal pipe Joined to both cacarbs?

Secondary throttle butterfly has not been engaging for length of ownership (I'm assuming). Have taken the carburettor off the manifold and can clearly see that upon the primary throttle rotating, the secondary linkage does not drop down, is the diaphragm? that is connected to the linkage to blame? I...

Re: adjusting brakes 76 180b

there is the square end adjuster that sticks out of the backing plate, i was following the haynes manual that i have the other day. Thought i would ask on here as within a small amount of turning (1/4) the hub would not turn at all by hand, so backed it off a tiny amount and then would turn very fre...
