Tranny and t-case getting shipped to shep

After my drag racing fiasco, Im pretty sure my tranny has had it. I doesn't shift right anymore, so I got a call from shep this morning for my shipping plans and all is good and they are waiting for it.

I have had the chance to drive a tranny by shep and I couldn't wait to take the plunge myself.

I am having him do the works on the tranny and the t-case is getting the Mitsu LSD since the Quaife's are on backorder for a month or so.

A tilton clutch will be going in place of the crappy ACT

That is the combo that I am running and I am quite happy with it. I was lucky enough to get the Quaife due to great timing.

I am currently 130 miles in on my tilton cermatallic, tre tranny (evo 9 upgrade) and ralliart lsd.

So far I am loving it. Cant wait to get her really broken in. The only thing I need now is the EIDs if i stab the brake & clutch it has a tendancy to die unexpectedly.
