I am envious of your LSD, you should get the guy to churn out some more.

You people and your pics. I'll try to get some video how about that. I don't have a decent camera any more (dropped my good old Canon analog and she no work no more).

Handbrake cable was easy. Use the stock 4 link one. I fact I've just bought a new one (over $220 from Neesun...ouch!!) because my old one was tired and needed a brake (all pun intended).

It took forever to get the guy to make the first batch of LSDs I don't think he in any hurry to do more.

I tried using the stock one, even with shoes with heaps of meat on them. But it doesn't hold the car at all.

Only other thing I can think of, is try one of the other cables I have, and maybe buy some new discs. The drums in them have some wear (And have a nice lip on them, making removal and installation a kent), so that could also cause a drama.

I had to get a new cable because mine had stretched so much. Now with the new one and new handbrake pads they had to space the centre holder out to get some adjustment because it was too tight.

Ah, okies.

So you're saying don't sell it all off, yet?

Thanks, Rog.

The Gaz went back on the dyno today after getting the Power FC fited and they found the boost creeped a touch.....to over 15psi!! Apparently the motor is still quite happy and is still running strong. They think it made about 200rwKW!! Not bad for motor with paper thin walls, matchstick rods and has done over 300,000km.

Dyno sheet coming soon.

Nice work, Does it rev past 6,000rpm? Does it make power past that?
It looks like it would go to 6,500 or 7,000rpm according to the graph yea..
