    I installed a Quaife LSD in my FWD Magna which is a very similar LSD to the wavetrac.. and it was fantastic, difference was night and day, I loved it.

    Best mod I ever spent serious coin on.

    Loving this thread, one for you comedians LOL and two for the positive comments about FWD with a LSD, as I said earlier not driven FWD with one fitted so getting quite exited!!! I do have a great video of the car snorting and spinning at the ring. If I can get a link on here I will coz then I'll do another at the ring with it fitted. As for demos this weekend in the rain - nah, I'm working and car tucked up in bed!!

    Not sure if this will work, but try it. I will have to take it down shortly though.

    Works fine Andy You can hear the car spinning the wheels. What BOV you using? It sounds like the car is sneezing

    OK mate that's good. Do you know though, I'm getting a bit senile and can't remember the make of the BOV. I know it's a good quality Aus made one. Wodjno will know the make as I believe he had one similar. I'll know the name as soon as someone says it!!

    Just waiting for the speedo drive gear to arrive. All stripped out and found that diffs fitted to this box have the speedo drive as part of the cast casing for the diff. The new diff casing is machined to accept a separate drive as fitted to a 2G eclipse (same size as mine hopefully!!). Told it should be here tomorrow as it was factory order.................. Why wavetrac can't supply this as part of the package, or even an option, is anyones guess.

    OK Drive is here and appears to fit. Got a little more checking and fiddling to do and then start putting it all back together. Just off out in a mo to use a press as all new bearing to go in as well.

    Enough jabbering, you've had 8hrs since you posted, it should be back together by now

    Shame to drop it in that manky gear oil though, it is a thing of beauty

    Had a few problems with the bearings. Used the local dealer's press, but do you think they had the right adapters? So, have had the resort to old skool tech. So inner races split and and ejected - bloody tuf them Koyo races! Some are now refitted but despite use of freezer, front output shaft outer race is being a complete twat and does not want to go back in the casing. Have put it away for now coz I could see a little red mist forming!
