Yeha i was just about to post basically the same thing I've got an EB sII with 3.22 gears and i was quoted $1200 by preston autos and they said i would have to change my housing!
I've got a 28 spline spool ready to go but am unsure about diff gears@! |

Gezza, my original diff was a 3.08:1 which is in a 94 I6 EF gli.
I have gone from that to 3.73:1, and now im on 3.91:1 ratio and i havent had any problems fitting the gears to the housing. I cant see why you wouldent be able to either.... I get all my diff stuff thru G&J Differentials in melbourne, they are incorperated with Street&Strip gears, who make most of there gear sets and axels. There stuff is made strong.

Not nessicarily every gear will fit it does depend on the particular centre you have ther are 78 series gears and 75 series gears (78 series gears being the better ones, you will find 75 series gears in a pintara borgy). some centers only take 75 series and some take both. to know for sure you would have to know what the number is on your centre. If it is the stock diff centre a good diff shop should be able to tell you what centre was the factory fitment and intern which gears you need. Send Mall Wood a email he will explain it better for you

if your on the cheap, then scout the wreckers for pintara and early skyline diffs. the pintara is 4.11 and the skyline is 3.9. its all borg warner stuff and goes straight in.

with the pintara gears there are 3.90 and 3.89 ratios. These are actually the same gear size what happend was that the original gears, which i think was the 3.89 ratio, were failing during the original warrenty period of the cars (excessive noise). So to know which diff gears had been changed the new ones fitted under warrenty were stamped with 3.90 and were slightly better with respec to the noise. but dont worry about there strength they are both comprable. a mate of mine used to use them in a twin turbo vp and he only broke one set and that was because of a locker. they are a good cheap option

i got the r31 series 3 skyline 3.89 fits in no probs but grab the axle shims just in case you might need them. picked up the gears for $80.

OH and totally willing to pay some one to provide me with a set of those pintara gears like what ever you pay plus $100 in melb tho

Go to www.gjdiffs.com.au.
Give them a ring,.. i get all my stuff posted to me in Wagga Wagga (is fairly cheap to!) A set of gears will set you back about $450-$500 (yer there not cheap)  But worth it!
And if you want fairly unbreakable Borgwarner, 31 spline billets ($950  ), and a spool to suit ($250)..... the only thing you will break or bend is the housing itself  lol

Ok well i got the info basically obviously being a borgy that anythin that fits in a como diff will fit in a 78 series. now my only problem is whats the difference between a 78 and a 75 like identification wise? is there a difference between splines etc?

If you put 75 series gears and 78 series gears side by side they are visually different the 75 series crown wheel is slightly thinner and they are not made out of the same quallity of seel as the 78 series gears. The number on the pinion will also tell which series they are, the first four digit number will be ##78 on 78 series and ##75 on 75 series. 75 series are sill strong the can hold around 200 RWKW as long as they are lapped propperly and the gears them selves are not worn to the s**t. 78 series gears are more robust and are usually made of a harder steel. Mall Wood told me that he finds the 78 series, especiallly with 3.90 and shorter, lap in easier and don't wine as much as well. Basicly a 78 series is a better and stronger gear. They will set you back maybe $350 - $400 for 3.90 new or you can get a second hand set for around the $150 - $200 if you are lucky.

Yep but I made it cheaper for myself i took the housing in BARE with only the centre left
so all he had to do it fit and line up the gears. Its worth saving some dollars i still thought that was a good deal. ohhh and he had to clean it out as well it was full of metal shavings
got it home. put the rear plate on sealed it with goo, chuck the axles in brake assembly and bolt it in easyyy as.
