The others definitely belong, but this is standard practice on cheap drift cars rather than buying a fancy diff. Everyone's got to start somewhere.

I would love to see what would happen if they tried to drive with it like that!

Exactly the same as it would if you drove a vehicle with a locked diff!

The other one with a welded crown gear though

"the freshest and at the same time one of the most extreme aesthetic treatments the new-gen 86 has received."

Looks dangerous to me, and not in a good way! WTF is the point of all that exposed wheel? moar

[EDLT]

Is the wheel exposed at the rear of the arch too?

You know what I hate about the GT86? The way the bodywork has paint on it, this kit would be perfect.

[matthias73]

The latest upgrade on the 86 is to cut holes in the tyres so that air goes to the brakes, instant cooling. Works in conjunction with the exposed tyres.


I would love to see the mess that would happen if you were to drive that around a quarry road. Mmm, stones everywhere!

I'm not an expert on welding diff's, (although I know it's common practice.), but my first thought was, 'How are they going to get it back into the casing/axle?'

Whoosh parrot required for people can't spot a joke... that diff pic was an original response, long ago, to a naive 'how do I weld-up a diff?' query.

[J4SON88]

I have a lot of want for that GT86, it's how you imagine a serious GT2 category racer might look. Mmmmmm

Well; There was me thinking I'd seen every single picture on the internetz and was privy to their original context!

I stand berated!!

[twink]

Quite like the GT86 but those brakes look tiny.

I think even if it was the VTEC ,which is hard to tell from the pics, the drag from those mudflaps would negate any VTEC YO!.

I was thinking how annoying the reflection will be from that dashboard on a bright sunny day.
