what would be the purpose?
are you planning on drifting it?
is it na?

welding the differential will cause wheel hop at low speeds... like when turning to get into a parking space.
and they usually always screech during low speed turns.
and sometimes they can get unlocked which is a very scary feeling

pls do a search been covered many times we don't need another opinion thread on this.
welding a differential is pretty universal but the best thing to do is get a lsd.

just typed in welded differential into the search box and so many threads came up.. like this one.
