i will be providing some donuts tomorrow.

in all seriousness, its completely different, i just went around the block for a few again, and man im going to be drifting tomorrow around most the autox track, i'll need to zero in my shocks again to where i like it.

also loving the 4.1 end gear vs. 4.3, first gear is much more useful

stub shaft on driverside has pushed out....the circlip magically became smaller than the ridge and did nothing from preventing it from pulling out....fixed it, but never put the car back on the ground, since i got a call and they said the autox was cancelled i didnt feel like putting the tire back on.

yeah, they were new for the correct application, i bent it back and tired again. holds fine now..it was weird, i dont even see how it could have gotten that squeezed to completely close up and become smaller than the ridge. it's all good now though.

hmm, yeah these guys were very tiny compared to the miata ones. i couldn't get them in place with them on, but I've heard of others doing it.

So far they seem to be ok, just drove it back to work after lunch, feels great....just waiting to see when the turbo stops smoking to make sure nothing is going wrong up there...i always hate removing it and putting it back and waiting for everything to burn off, it's always hard to stop a problem right away.

ill see if I cant go out back and take a quick vid.
