Rebuild take IV

Ordered my 2.9 dss axle last week after snapping it. Crazy how these hatches run 10.2's with 1.4 60ft's on rsx stock axles and rarely break one with 370+ all motor whp and my car breaks one untuned about the same power level though.

Damn didn't see this till now for some reason.

Cars got the 2.9 DSS axles now. I that problem is fixed. However the car is leaking trans fluid still. This piece of shit OBX is driving me insane. It won't lock the drivers axle into place so it pulls out some.

The whole underside of my car is oil soaked and I smell burning oil ALL the time.

Looks like it's time to throw that POS away and get a Quaife or wavetrack LSD.

On another note I got my Carbon Fiber diffusers in the mail last week and installed one. Yes one. Lol my son came into the garage numerous times to ask if I was done so once I finished the one I decoded it was family time over diffuser time. So I'm ghetto fabulous till the next one goes on.

Here is a couple shots....How you enjoy. Any thoughts?

Have you ever looked into MFactory LSDs? They are comparable to the quaifes and wavetracs, but not quite as expensive, like $650 or so.

Also what is the point of those diffusers? I've seen them many times before, but never knew what they did.

Thanks man. The rear always needed something to set it off and I think these and control arms will do the trick.

Yea I had heard of them but then I heard of ppl not being able to get their axles back out once they were in. I've just got too much invested into this build to keep cheating myself on getting half up to par equipment. The saying "do it once do it right" hasn't been put into full effect on this car at all. I've cut too many corners and redone too many things and now I'm left with a dull knife if you will...

I will however do more research instead of taking a few stories as my definitive opinion on them.

And these diffusers are to keep the rear bumper from acting like a parachute while your racing or just even driving. Thats why all the cars in CT, NY, and NJ all either half no rear bumper or they have cut the ever living shit out of it.

Ya I have just heard the mfactory is basically as good as the quaife, and I was likely going to use one in my next trans, but I will have to look into the issue of not getting the axles out, that would be no good.

Sorry, but why cars in CT, NY, and NJ?
