    You need launch control, if you dump the clutch without, you don't get wheelspin, the whole car bogs and everything takes a hard hit.

                  ÂŁ756 a pair for his car. gundrilled type too.

                  Apparently communication wasn't great but their work is I'm told extremely good.

                  Another name mentioned to me was Dave Mac ( may have the surname spelt wrong ) may be worth googling them.

                    I was thinking about this the other night, At what sort of power is it worth marking stock driveshafts for twist?
                    For the ÂŁ700+ i'd rather carry around spare driveshafts as they can be swapped in a short time easily.

                      You need to machine the rear hub carriers to take the larger bearings and hubs from the front this will let you run the larger diameter Cv

                        Good idea - is there enough meat in the rear carriers for that? You'll need to press a strengthening sleeve over the bearing carrier spigot I recon, as the wall thickness will be slight once you're increased the bore to accommodate the larger diameter bearing

                              No diff lock

                              Is it stronger with diff locked ?
