hello,

does anyone know if you can buy these in singles because i think its safe to say that the group buy on here is dead.

or is there a way of strenthening the standard one for some strip action? really want to get my new box and L.s.d in the car for springfest.

have you pushed it to any extremes though, i.e drag strip

That's interesting Lance.
I thought the weakspot was at the neck of the driveshaft - between the shaft and splines?
What sort of power/torque you running and have you got a LSD too? I might sleeve mine if it really works long term.

didnt run a lsd then, once my car is back out with the new turbo and that on it will be running lsd so ill see if the shaft holds up.

The turbocharged cars are fairly light on the transmission compared the supercharged ones.

All of my gearbox failures ,( with supercharger is about 6) have been at low RPM no higher than 3000rpm  , 2nd gear and 5th gear are the most unreliable.
