Evo 10 inner rear axle CV cups

So, for all interested in doing the evo 3 lsd conversion for 3 bolt VR4s (and if you have a 4 bolt with viscous), I have done a fair bit of detective work on this and I believe that these febest parts

are correct for the application. I managed to luck out on ebay and scored a pair of evo 3 rear inner axle cups, and I will measure them and confirm with Febest if they are correct when they arrive. Keep your eye on this thread if you're interested.

Cheers all

Nope, unfortunately they differ. Which is a bugger! Different end spline count, and different length of the spline itself. Shame!

A guy in the southwest over here wanted an LSD in to his VR4 and found that you put the evo 3 plate lsd in the evo/gsr cup fit

I could machine a few more conversion cups for 3 bolt to LSD like I made for mine, but no free time...

Still testing how much torque they will take...

Could you elaborate on how you did it? Are the cups a STD of the shelf? Did you have to recut the shaft splines?
