help, just noticed one of the side gears (i think thats what you call them- the little gears inside the main diff) is bust
from the photo, has this diff got an lsd ? just looks like a standard diff to me ?

NOS never hurt a car ever did it.

At least that goes to show that car is making good power. You thought it was fast before but just think how fast it will go when the wheels are actually connected to the engine!

Ouch - you really gave it a pounding that day mate! My grandad had more teeth left than that on his 96th birthday!
