going 5 speed skyline ,trying to use skyline rear diff just got to mess with the tyre sizes to get ratios right
on the bara box cracking bit of kit but i just cant launch hard on the normal transmition and im not going to go to ffd or r+d and 9 inch diff as i want to keep it road useable and would rather spend the money on other things
to date this year
input shaft uprated bara
output shaft as soon as i rebuilt the gear box after the input shaft
3 drive shafts they just snapped like twigs (now have upratted dome shafts)
rear diff
front section of rear prop
and cooked my centre diff as the car went front wheel drive when the rear diff went its all getting a bit of a pain in the ass and thats all with out gas darent even touch that switch
