    Quaife vs gripper diff/ m factory

    I havent had a chance to try my quaife and guys at the track are saying I will swap it out for an m factory due to the quaife spinning up on corners on the inside wheel that may cause an overall spin. Would love your opinions on this as the guys making the comments were "honda" guys... 3 x 13...

    Stud conversion=Death?
