At long last my diff has arrived! Just got to put it into one of my spare boxes, then it can go in when the engine is done....
Should see me into the 12's now hopefully!

Not a lots has happened to it really! Waiting for a unit to do it in. Its just running around in its poorley state. Engine on its last legs (but it keeps going strong... somehow, I'd hate to know what compression its running!), and the clutch likes to slip.
Got all the bits for it now, just needs to be done!

Cheers guys I'm looking forward to seeing how it changes the car! More out of corners than just straight line grip....

first time i tried mine out on a roundabout was fun. Wanted to come off the roundabout so floored it as it would usually understeer immensly with the loss of traction, but it just threw itself back round the roundabout where the wheels were pointing!
how much did it set you back?
