Effects of front diff oils


Thicker:

•
Decreased steering response.
•


More stability under braking, but less turn in.
•


Better on power steering at corner exit.
Thinner:
•


Increased steering response.
•


Less stable under braking but better turn in.
• Car will understeer on power at corner exit

Effects of rear diff oils

Thicker:
• Car understeers slightly at corner entry, but makes the car
more difficult to control at corner exit (powerslides).
•


Increased on-throttle steering.
•


Better on high-traction surfaces.
Thinner:
•


More stability mid corner and corner exit.
•


Understeer on-throttle.
• Better on low-traction surfaces.

Hope this helps
