Place your bets on how many hundred miles the tyres last! :lol:

im guessing on 14 (thats 1400miles) before the tyres are wanked. lol.

I had a welded diff in an old siera that i used for doughnuts and drifting. A brand new set of 15" remoulds lasted me exactly 15 minutes. :mad:

I have a MIG spec diff too :) But my car is not working yet, so ill have to wait a few days to test it.

Any problems on the road and on tight corners ? Is it a small or a big casing diff ? I have the small one from 320 and im not sure it will hold together with M50 power.

Btw...i never had a set of tyres for more than 10 days :) So i guess thats not really a problem.

yeh tyre wear isnt an issue, partworns are cheap enough.

erm turning circle is funny now, you have to be a bit more forceful and direct with the steering ...so far in the dry i prefer it soooo much, its a bit wet today so i'll take it out in a bit and see how scary it is on corners then :mad:
