Just was wondering peoples experiences with
MoTeC’s Subaru Diff Controllers

i plan to get one along with the MoTec m800 plug in ECU

i have a 04 sti but doesnt have the diff split setting

any past experiences or an insight would be great

you need a dccd diff to make any use of a diff controller.

makes sense
so im assuming because mine doesnt come with the standard diff control
thats another aftermarket part i will need
and im sure it will be a preety big task

have to weigh up if its worth it or not

Your car doesn't come with a DCCD diff.

You will require a factory part, called a DCCD diff, before you can control it electronically.

^^^ Then after you spend all that money you'll ask yourself "why did I spend all that money, my car is no different to drive"

Seriously, spend a grand (or less) on a plate rear diff and forget about the DCCD centre unless you do autokhana and want to handbrake everywhere.

Unfortunately its not as simple as just installing a DCCD Unit into a normal 6 speed.

If you really want DCCD in a 6 speed. Easiest way is to buy a DCCD 6 speed and then sell your VCD 6 Speed. Cost around $1K + labour for the gearbox swap + controller in the end.

DCCD is a nice thing to have, but you are better off getting a Plated rear diff first. A Plated Diff is kind of needed anyway to make the most of DCCD. So get the plated rear LSD and then decide if you want DCCD.

or maybe just get the motec and get antilag or something im sure that will be much funner then rwd

probably end up costing me more in parts down the track tho :P

could be an excuse for a new turbo

haha cheers for the insight guys was just an idea i was throwing about

That's a myth. DCCD does not make the car switchable to RWD.
It can make more rear torque bias than a VCD, but it's not like the GT-R Skyline's system where you can do burnouts etc.

I am of the understanding that plated rear diffs cannot be rebuilt.

the opposite, plated diffs need to be rebuilt often!
