    Means you can't easily work out which one to get without opening it all up to measure. Ridiculous, but what can we do...

      Sorry mate, here is a pic of the ring gear and measurement we are all talking about.

        Bit of a thread revival.

        Is there any consensus on the best place to buy a Wavetrac?
        Also wondering if there's any differences other than the inner diameter between the 113 and 114mm ring gear?
        Why I ask is I was thinking if you got the 114mm TBD and then worst case if you have a 113mm ring gear just take it over to a machine shop, half an hour later you've got a 114mm ring gear. Might be easier than faffing about ordering 2 diffs, returning one, etc.

          It is seriously NOT a place you want to be elongating holes or getting extra ones drilled.

          Chris Preen was looking for people interested in a group buy but it was a while back.

            There doesn't seem to much interest for a group buy for the wavetrac or maybe it's just too hard. My suggestion is to find a local supplier thats stocks both sizes. For Sydney people Seb at Euro Automotive.

              Question for Redliner, you mentioned a while back your diff is 113mm. Just wondering what your gearbox code is and your cars build date?

              Cheers mate
