Well I cant help you with what you asked, But I can tell you that i'm putting a B/W diff in my TA22! All up its costing me $670 This should be able to handle some punishment with the 3S-GTE fitted

By BW i assume you mean borg warner? Mind if i get some details of the conversion off ya? I am thinking about this for my Celica now i have the rotary in it. Either that or just go 9".
Any info you have on the conversion would be sweet.

Sorry, Yes I do mean borg warner! The conversion is pretty simple really! I'm not doing the shortening work my self nor am I doing the mounts! But basicly I just bought a diff out of a VN commodore and took it to a person with the diff out of my TA22! He is going to shorten the VN diff and then fit the mounts from the TA22 diff! For the time being I will just be sticking with the VN brakes! I have not thought about the centre as yet because the car wont be drivin for a while!
I'm fitting a 3S-GTE to my car and then i'll be doing some work to it so I'm hoping the B/W will cope with this! I looked into fitting a 9 inch but damm they are heavy! Too heavy for handling intact!
The hilux diff is another good option but it is just too much of a pain to fit disk brakes!

Hilux diff rear discs done! Too easy. Currently doing write up. Will hand over to Nark when finished.
I have a recipe that will fit under 15" or 16" wheels.
