I was looking into the RPM Transmission as a future mod. What's the Quaif differential? Four more weeks, that must be a killer.

Hey 805, batten down the hatches... lots of rain coming tonight!

The Quaif diff is supposed to keep power going to the wheel that usually slips during an accellerating turn. I hear they are bullet proof and mostly used in racing, but I'm hoping that I'll get more satisfaction by not hearing that annoying clunking from sticking clutch plates. The Quaif doesn't have those.

Come by after I get the car and check it out.

What's the deal with the weather here. I heard there is like a big 4 day storm

Heck...maybe battle this one out and go to Vegas for a couple of days...

That Quaif sounds good. If you got anymore info, link ect...plz pm away.

I look forward to seeing your car. My car should be ready in the next few days (if I'm lucky tomorrow), it's been almost 4 months.
