I can see the point of these in a rally car, but why fit one in a fwd road car? It is a lot of dough..! (says he who has none) :)

You can get them direct from Quaife too but not sure if it's cheaper or dearer. I got my SD1 atb diff from them and it was cheaper than other vendors.

How else can you get both wheels doing burnouts ?? :)

They are also super strong with a lifetime warranty even for track work.

If there are a few people interested, Minis Plus can organise a special deal group buy.
Discount would depend on quantity.
Anyone intrested just let me know.

If you are doing the sums to bring one in yourself, these are over $1000.00 so don't forget to add customs clearance fees, Gov import duty and GST and credit card / Paypal fees...

Cheers, Ben.

Group buy looks like a good idea

$1241 inc postage and duty to be exact. If Minis plus can go $100 near that I'm happy to buy local. At the moment they are wanting $1725 plus postage.


The previous poster is the man. So hit him up
