Nice pass!

I saw this car at TX2K12, it was on jack stands Saturday and a few guys were tearing into it!

How are the diffs holding together running 1.4X 60's off the T-Brake? Factory or aftermarket LSD?

We Have Broke a few but for the most part they hold up great.. we just make sure we have an extra before we go to any major events .. We have broken the ring and pinion once and the carrier once. The pumpkin that's is in there right now has over 30 passes on it, so its very strong. We use a factory limited slip with a 4.30 gear and tighten up everything .

 

[Janz99]

Are you guys running solid pinion spacers, or just the regular crush sleeve?

I just picked up a spare diff to go through and rebuild, id like to keep a spare with me like you had mentioned.

 

[Tun_x]

We use the solid spacer.

What size tires are you on? And what stall/boost level are you launching at?

28x10.50 M/T slick

Stall is around 6500 with full boost and nitrous, but our best 60ft was at 5500. Going to be tightening up the converter a bit. Launch boost is around 20psi.

If you don't mind my asking, have you done any weight reduction so far? I mean, if for nothing else than to counter the weight of the driver's huge brass balls? That's gotta be a fun ride...

EDIT: I mean the car, not the balls, the fun ride bit... :nono:

 

[Tun_x]

The car has some weight reduction but still has along ways to go in that department .. It could be a lot lighter .

Any chance you guys would mind posting up some pics of your diff/subframe set-up. You had mentioned on SF about the track arms, would be nice to see a picture of how you guys have it set-up?

Im assuming its something similar to Seans from Titan, minus the mk4 diff:

The rear end of our car is much simpler. Like I said we built custom track arms but the rest is stock as far as control arms go we haven't moved the strut inboard .and all the mounting remains in the stock locations. I don't have any pics right now.


Thanks Jason
