STL Eclipse 2011 · October 12th, 2011, 10:24 PM

So i messaged RRE today and i need to find out how many splines or something our axle has the gs model this is the mail i got so lets see if anyone can answer my question

Hi AJ,

I just wanted to let you know that I spoke with Mike and he received the email, however the answer is kinda long so give him time to reply. If you can pop an axle out and tell us how many splines and the diameter of the splines that would go along way in helping us help you. You might be the first person to put one on a 2011 so we need to make sure for sure before anybody goes spending a thousand bucks.

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 12:09 AM

your about to buy this before you get any bolt-ons? subscribed though.

STL Eclipse 2011 · October 13th, 2011, 12:18 AM

noo i will be geting bolt ons after winter passes but im trying to get this figured out cause i knw the lsd helped joey alot and idk anyone that actually did it on the gs

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 12:22 AM

I was just curious. I plan on getting the lsd a lil while down the road as well prob after i am tuned and have coil-overs.

joeyb · October 13th, 2011, 12:24 AM

I can't overstate how cool the LSD is and how much it improves the car. it's simply unbelievable. take offs are incredible.

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 12:26 AM

i can imagine joey. may get this before coil-overs ha still undecided.

Kingjames359 · October 13th, 2011, 12:31 AM

Im in same boat as u muscles tune, coilovers, lsd

STL Eclipse 2011 · October 13th, 2011, 12:32 AM

so does anyone know the answer to the question they asked

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 12:34 AM

well since your car is newer they may need to redesign an lsd specifically for that year from the sound of what they are saying. Last time i checked they already had a lsd applicable towards the gs at least the earlier models.

STL Eclipse 2011 · October 13th, 2011, 12:38 AM

is there anywhere where i can find the answer do i actually have to go and jack my car up and take out the axle, yeah and its weird cause noooo gs on this site has the lsd

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 12:39 AM

well its due to the fact a lot of members may find it not necessary to drop 900$ on it, then again at the same time lots of builds are going on especially FI that take up all the $ they would of had available for this mod.

STL Eclipse 2011 · October 13th, 2011, 01:01 AM

well i dont think ill go turbo or nos maybe i can get my question answered from the dealer

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 01:05 AM

hope so always a good motivator to hear someones opinion on a mod that helps performance wise.

STL Eclipse 2011 · October 13th, 2011, 01:18 AM

i wana be the first gs to have it lol

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 01:23 AM

ha well just by this thread you got james, you, or i prob going to go for this after a tune

STL Eclipse 2011 · October 13th, 2011, 02:22 AM

sweet i gotta go to the dealer so i can answer their questions hopefully

dejectedangle · October 13th, 2011, 07:34 AM

There should be a manual that shows a detailed description on how to take your year tranny apart and there you can count the splines

akley88 · October 13th, 2011, 07:37 AM

this is one upgrade that i want to do

CrAnSwIcK · October 13th, 2011, 05:39 PM

Does the 2011 eclipse GS still use a 4G69? I have a Quaife LSD, it's a QDH7BR...it's the RRM one, but i got it from another guy never used for a ridiculous price...I still have my stock diff, i can post up the part number for it, and the number of splines, if you can confirm your stock diff is the same as mine that might be a good indication. And yes, the LSD changes the way the car drives and handles all together...minimal understeer at high speed, traction and grip from a stand-still is awesome, and no torque steer...Forced induction without an LSD is kinda stupid in my opinion.

Differential part number MD746800...

the WaveTrac 76.309.180WK is supposed to fit 06+ eclipse GS, as well as the 04-06 Ralliart lancer...

I counted 27 spline

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 07:02 PM

ha on that note^ gonna have to get this before i get coil-overs

akley88 · October 13th, 2011, 07:21 PM

the wave trac is the one that i wanna get

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 07:24 PM

whys that travis? RRE sells the Torsen Type Limited Slip Differential as im sure you know. Just curious.

STL Eclipse 2011 · October 13th, 2011, 08:24 PM

How can I find my stock diff will it be in the handbook or

akley88 · October 13th, 2011, 08:33 PM

wave trac says that theirs will work with the auto

muscles · October 13th, 2011, 08:40 PM

o werd.

Both Quaife and Wavetrac are helical type, automatic torque biasing differentials, the wavetrac get's its name from a separate, wave-type gearing system that preloads the diff in zero load conditions...

Wavetrac® Differential - A torque biasing differential with a difference and click on "how it's different" if you want to know...

I was going to get a wavetrac, but an opportunity arose to get the quaife, and i was all over it...$400 shipped, so obviously i couldn't pass it up...I've been quite happy with it. You know when you try pulling 90 depgrees into fast moving traffic from a dead stop, and all you get is wheel spin? that doesn't happen anymore, infact i get very little wheel spin, and i can max out first gear in a full turn without breaking loose.

joeyb · October 14th, 2011, 01:58 PM

^you got a Quaife for $400?! you lucky bastard - it cost me $1300 and then $500 to put in....oh man you are SO FUCKING LUCKY.

Yeah, again, can't say it enough - new car at the next level w/ an LSD installed. It's like the engine is directly connected to the wheels instead of waiting for a bunch of gears and shafts to 'catch-up' or something. no spin, no torque-pull, POWER TO THE GROUND. Combined w/ my Stage IV clutch and shortshifter, roll-stops on the engine w/ the stiffy, it's just next level. Like a dragster w/ metal rods connecting everything as opposed to floppy cables is how it feels. I can hear the gears 'clack' into place as I shift, and when I launch off the line it's difficult to not go too fast.

muscles · October 14th, 2011, 04:07 PM

Dagum joey im already sold. Making it overkill now

Kingjames359 · October 14th, 2011, 04:13 PM

So only the wav trac works on a auto thats one rre sells correct?

muscles · October 14th, 2011, 04:19 PM

RRE sells the quaife.

Edit: i was mistaken its a wave for the gs.

It was $350 plus 50$ to ship it in from Edmonton, and i installed it myself, when i rebuilt my tranny...i did 3rd gear synchro, all the bearings, and oil seals.

joeyb · October 14th, 2011, 07:35 PM

^incredible! +erep. not only am I jealous of the price you got on the part, I am green w/ envy at your mechanical skill. I MIGHT know enough to stumble my way through it, but I seriously doubt I could actually do it, even IF I had the lift and all the parts/tools I'd need to complete the job properly. you don't have any pictures of the install process do you? I'm sure we'd all love to see them....

haha yeah it's well worth it and you won't believe the feel once that bitch is up in there. just make sure you do the clutch also at the same time if you think you are EVER going to replace the clutch - as I did them separately and cost myself an extra $550.

here is my LSD thread if you've never seen it:

CrAnSwIcK's 4G69 Build (rebuild) - evolutionm.net

It's not like super in depth, on "how-to", but more along the lines of "how it's coming along" lol...I could have taken more pictures and done a "it's not as scary as it looks" on the tranny rebuild, but by the time i cracked here open, i had parts in hand, and i could have the tranny in and engine back together in a matter of a day, so i was in a hurry to get her running again. I was travelling more than 100 miles for work every week, and only home on weekends, so time was an issue, and it's my daily...still took 2 months.

basically i roasted my timing belt, and decided what better time than now to do some work...

here's my my custom turbo conversion project (slow going)
http://forums.evolutionm.net/04-06-r...phase-2-a.html

and i posted this here already, but i made my own turbo manifold.
