I drove two welded differential cars yesterday.
My friend swears by welded differentials.
He's got an 88 prelude with its diff welded and a 2004 cobra with its diff welded.
I really. Really liked how both cars handled.
The 88 prelude is a track car and I was using the handbrake a lot just to get it to turn. But it felt extremely predictable.
The mustang was just the same, just no handbrake.
Neither of them could really turn for shit with normal steering but powering through the turns or just taking them slower felt great.
What does /o/ think about diff welds?

Didn't know you can weld a front diff.
Also, welded diff is for faggets. Buy a spool you cheap shit.
Drove a 240 with a spool. Mad fucking fun in the snow. Mad. Fucking. Fun

I didn't know you could either, but both wheels were spinning and he told me how he did it. The only other reason why I believe it was welded or locked was because that thing turned like ass normally.
I was wondering if there was a welded diff you could buy. Just looked up spools, and I figure that was obvious enough.
I'll look into this.

no wonder it didn't want to turn
poor-man's approximation of a limited slip diff. no more, no less
stupid unless you are a pro racer and know what you are doing
