3.9 rear diff r160
 

Hey guys,

Just after a 3.9 rear diff R160 if possible for my 6 speed conversion. Just shoot me a pm if you got one.

Cheers,

Chris.

Is there a difference between a 3.9 for a 5speed and 6speed?

Will not matter as long as the rear diff is 3.9 ratio. If you are lucky enough you can score a r160 2 way plated 3.9 just need to ring wreckers.... The Wrx 3.9 is usually a open diff like the front.

3.9 R160's are hard to find. They don't come in any Aus delivered WRX and only one version of JDM for a very short run.
You will most likely have to build one from 2 diffs.
NB; the ones everyone flogs as 3.9 are usually 3.54

hi man,
for the 6 speed u need the 180 suretrack diff much stronger,r160 is for 5 speed and they can also be lsd the v2 sti ra had that diff,good luck

What two diffs will i need to build one?

You will need an open R160 3.9 from an early lib, and whatever LSD center you want to use to match your shafts.
