EBAY CV setup for Z's


DREW RBZ

Recommended Posts

That number and hp increase is figured for a race 510. When they are lowered a lot the U joints are at really severe angles, much worse than a Z. You could feel vibrations just driving in a straight line in my friend's 510 due to U joint angles. I've never heard of or seen that problem with the halfshafts on a Z. Not trying to talk you out of it, just doubting it would make as big a difference on a dyno.

 

You are spot on, Jon! My buddy, Kelvin, put the CVs on his VG powered 510 and it made a huge difference in getting rid of that dang acceleration vibration that is typical in the lower dimes. He sold the car several years ago and it's currently back on the market. Just about one of the nicest 510s out there, especially as a driver.

That thing is a beauty... Man I'm definitely getting a 510 when I'm done with my Z.

that IS a very nice looking 510.. but asking for 24K or higher, he oughta have an R-180 LSD in the back instead of a subaru R160. I PRESUME its a 160 because he said subaru 3.7 LSD, and unless it is out of a late model WRX that means 160 and not 180.. but with CVs instead of halfshafts, in a 510.. I suppose a LSD 160 can hold up OK.

 

 

Has anyone considered the rear CV setup out of a subaru???????

 

Must Research!!!

Actually late model sti's use a r180, I have one I'm trying to get sorted out. Its really slow going though, used sti cvs to experiment with are almost like non existent.
