Re: Front Limited Slip- (Progress) [Re: Axe Man] #480810 12/01/04 08:14 PM Anonymous Unregistered I just found one at a Mazda Salvage yard. $900 big ones. I'll keep searching. I would like to know which year the T1 came in and what year Ron's is. The guy at mazda told me that the 94/95 and the 96/97 would fit but he did not know the difference. The one above is for a 2001. Might be the reason for the high price. He was at Mazmart in Atlanta and said that it was 26 spline and should work. He said the 93 and older had the vicous ?sp. Re: Front Limited Slip- SUCCESS [Re: MorganEstill] #480811 12/01/04 08:51 PM Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 339 Long Island NY wd8cdh OP Mudrunner Hi Keith and Morgan, I think it is for a '94. It is a T-1. I think the T-2 came out mid '95. The T-2 might be SLIGHTLY stronger but the T-1 is SLIGHTLY more agressive. Any '94 and newer Miata diff. should fit. There is also a RX-7 clutch type LSD that will also fit. It was in some of the non-turbo models. The '93 and older Miata had a much smaller diff (6" ring gear) and will NOT fit. Unfortunatly, most Miatas have an open diff, not the Torsen LSD.

MorganEstill Body Damage is Cool Quote There is also a RX-7 clutch type LSD that will also fit. It was in some of the non-turbo models. Is this for sure? From pictures I've seen of the RX-7, it looks a little bit different... of course the T-1 for the RX-7 operates like the T-1 for the Miata - Helical gear system - not clutch (at least this one.).

[Re: MorganEstill] #480814 12/02/04 01:53 PM Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 339 Long Island NY wd8cdh OP Mudrunner Hi Morgan, The lower picture looks like a Torsen from a RX-7 Turbo model. None of the RX-7 Turbo diffs will fit the Sportage. They are 8" ring gear, different splines etc. Ron Schroeder Long Island NY 99 4DR auto Sportage, 30x950R15 tires, 3/4" strut spacer, rear air springs, Manual Hubs, FRONT Torsen LSD 00 Safari AWD, 2" lift, 30x9.50 tires, 4x4 conversion in progress 73 Pinzgauer Swiss Army troop carrier Miata Torsen on ebay [Re: wd8cdh] #480815 12/02/04 09:55 PM Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 339 Long Island NY wd8cdh OP Mudrunner Miata Torsen T-1 Ron Schroeder Long Island NY 99 4DR auto Sportage, 30x950R15 tires, 3/4" strut spacer, rear air springs, Manual Hubs, FRONT Torsen LSD 00 Safari AWD, 2" lift, 30x9.50 tires, 4x4 conversion in progress 73 Pinzgauer Swiss Army troop carrier Re: Miata Torsen on ebay [Re: wd8cdh] #480816 12/03/04 07:07 PM Joined: Jul 2003 Posts: 1,062 Tijeras, NM, east of Albuquerq... MorganEstill Body Damage is Cool Quote Miata Torsen T-1 Yeah, I know that's where I got my picture. I want that LSD... Too bad I need new tires... On the bright side, though, I finished my light bar for the Sportage. Looks good. I'll have to post some pics when I get it on my vehicle.
