Just a question of fascination...I have heard of some of RWD WRXs but how much money would it take to convert it and would it be reliable

 

it would cost however much a used center diff costs, largo locker it remove your front axles and prepare for the drive shaft or rear dif to let go, I think some company is making a conversion with a new center dif, beefed up drive shaft and new rear end, but not 100% on that

 

I think that Sport Compact or Super Street wrote an article on the conversion about 2 months ago.

Some Putz in a WRX wanted to go drifting and found out that Subaru's dont drift very well!

Anyway the article explained all that was required, the specific diff's that were used and a bunch of other stuff.

 

basically it was a new center diff(as opposed to a welded center diff). Problem is he busted his driveshaft a few months after doing the conversion.

 

yeah I read that article...lol how does he not know that it wasnt good for drifting .....and he makes the cover for his vast knowledge.

 

bone was that you i saw at mastro on saturday? i had the green 3000gt if that sounds familiar.

 

probably not, dont think I was there on sat

 

My WRX is rear wheel drive. ..........for the dyno. Why would you want to convert it? And I'm pretty sure the little rear diff wouldn't last that long on the street.

 

sam has a way of modifying the center diff to make it RWD, you can leave the axles in.
