Dana 36

Picked up a Dana 36 differential last night for Keira and I have to admit I'm a little excited to get this thing installed. Now the 36 isn't the super tough 44 model that I wanted and its actually the same one already in the car but this one comes with a 3.07 gear compared to my 2.5x currently installed. This is the exact gear I wanted for my intake setup and should provide me a good acceleration boost, lets just hope it lasts once my build is complete. I didn't pay much for the diff and it came with a pair of wheel bearings that makes this a super deal, plus I meet Norm, cool elderly man with some awesome old school ford hot-rods. Now lets hope the snow melts and the garage warms up so I can get some work done!

Saw this Mclaren MP4-12C on my travels in Manhattan. Snow covered and rusting brakes.

G35 Carbonetic diff and Nismo cover


 Installed the Carbonetic diff with Nismo cover last week, install was simple minus the seized drive shaft to the open diff. Before installing the diff I had Brian at BC Enterprise reassemble the unit and make sure everything was torqued correctly because the previous owner had mentioned it was really noisy. Brian mentioned that the fluid was filthy and that for some strange reason that it appears the house had stretched allowing torque specs to drift. Everything is buttoned up and working great. Slight gear whine because of the used bearings but nothing excessive. Sill have to do a celebratory burnout!
