diff conversion's in chch

Postby hsmidy » Wed May 14, 2008 10:01 pm

Hey

so im finally looking at getting my ass end upgraded, so who in chch would ya recommend and what sort of price are they wanting.

im still tossing up between the hilux or the 9' its only in a small car(ta22) so i dont know who well the 9' would fit.

needless to say it has to be strong as it will be taking the abuse of a rather powerfull engine

The 9 inch is quite expensive and heavier you are better off going for the hilux like what I am going to be doing with my RA25.

nar havent tried any places yet, i find that word of mouth is often the best way of finding the right people.

i know i can get a hilux done for $1500 but the guys in auckland and thats lsd with discs and calipers.

what is the going price?

going price in chch is about 1200 - 1300 unless you know the guy whos doing it,

Royce Clive = really good job and done to perfection but expensive.

the diff shop = have heard really good things about the guy and workmanship and well priced. could also prob do you a deal if you have parts hes after for his cars,

di mule's hookup, if its the same guy im thinking of aka simon, good workmanship and really good price, also he can do brake up grades, about adozen cars are using his diffs and brakes and none have had problems,
