^^^ HAHAHAHA

Went drifting sat night. got bored so we were trying to get a shot of my bumper sliding over the curb (hence the angle). Didnt start the drift soon enough and went straight into the curb. Snapped the hub off the axle, broke the brake caliper bracket, bent the backing plate, and bent the mount on the car for the panhand bar. Got the car towed home and Sunday bt20v and Mckenney came over to look at it all. I am buying pretty much a new rear set up from bt20v and I hope to have it all in by next sunday! In the mean time heres the vid and pics of the damage.

sorry Tedd is getting all my spare rear axle stuff....including my zenki LSD so he can drift legit now!!!!!

i'm talking about the s14

Curbs know no mercy.

Leave it to Tedd, finally get some angle and then tag the hell out of a curb! Only he'd break an axle with an open diff!!!

well what can I say, go big or go home... err well in this case go big, wreck, then get towed home. ^_^


Right now the only thing I am worried about is the panhand bar delete.

um i wouldnt do that if i were you. however it would be cool to see the video of the rear end sliding out from under your car.

By deleting the panhard I am converting it to a "4 link"

yea the upper arms will be triagulated and re-enforced

OK so update on the rolla. Got the rear end out and all apart. Put the old housing next to the new one i got from bt20v and compared the upper control-arm mounts. Whoever did them didn't quite get them right and I could have cut them off and re-weld but it would get in the way of the brakes lines and it would be a lot more work. Cant really play R&D with my DD so I am going to reuse the old housing but with the LSD installed. first off I only had one LSD axle and one I got a new bearing pressed on at work it was good to go, as for my other non-LSD axle we trimmed it down and got them to match perfectly. The length of the splines are shorter but I put it on the non-power side to help put less stress on it when the LSD is not engaged. As for the damage to the panhard mount, we tried to bang it back in place but there it was bent too far and even put a kink in that part of the frame that goes from left to right under the trunk. With that we cut the old mount off and prepared a new stronger mount to be welded in and reinforced. :weapons56:

Pics to come soon

cool.
