Gro has a gear driven diff. Same basic product as a quaife, but Quaife is a manufacturer of gear driven diffs, Gro has a different brand.

gro has some sangyo or something like that...
He's posted plenty about it & I've found them !!!
Can get the quaife through a guy in new zealand ( thanks tatsu ! )
but want to know how hard it is to install as to make sure there are no nasty surprises for install.
Nobody over here knows a thing about them and I HAVE searched !!!
Does anyone know somebody who installed it on there car ?
probe, mx6, mx3 etc etc...
Somebody has surely !! Now where are you ?!?!

Hi
We have just bought 2 Quaife LSD from UK, we will complete installation within the next weeks, currently we have taken 1 gearbox apart, but we are missing an installation kit with bolts from Quaife to complete installation, this is an task that is for experienced Mazda mechanics, I don't say you can't do it, I just tell it is NOT easy.

There isen't any, it is samplet with - don't know if it is the right word - fastners, do you know what I mean, you drill them out and then you bolt the Quaife on with 11,25-11,3mm bolt's and nuts from ARP.
Ford & Mazda hasen't anything in EU for this and Mazda Europe won't talk with MazdaSpeed Or MazdaMotor as their products is not approved anywhere in the EU.
(%(%(=%¤#$$€][]\ - DAMN !!
We have two options - one is to buy from an ARP or Quaife dealer or make the Bolts & Nuts Locally, think it will be the last thing..

Got one. Definetly worth every penny for track and SoloII racing + unlimited lifetime garantee. Need to drill out the rivets holding the ring gear to the OEM open diff, transfer the ring gear and speedo gears to the Quaife + new set of bearings. Bolts/Studs kit is required to attach the ring gear to the LSD. Shift selector bracket in the transmission needs to be grinded to clear the heads of the bolts/studs (heads of the original rivets were thinner).

Luke, I'm sure it will be more than worth the pain and effort of listening to your super bad-a-- car rattle, clunk and exhaust blare down the road...
