The Skyline diff with commodore offset rims would probably still be within track so this diff conversion could be suitable for street cars that want commodore rims.

We are using a VL B/W diff, and that is giving us 1515 face to face. Measured it with the 225??? IPRA Yokohama's on it, and it is going to bring the wheels out nicely to the arches.

PS we will be running discs, so that may be the difference in the measurements. Also running 15" commodore chaser rims.

In Qld, once you do a diff conversion, the allowable track then goes on the original track of donor car the diff came from (plus or minus any lengthening or shortening), not the original rear track of the torana just bear that in mind in your checks.

you can make up the difference in the offset of the wheels anyway, it doesnt take much to alter the offset on steel wheels.

the bush sure is good Rory, I had a similar experience to you at Vicroads, and with police as well
