My tranny was a 92-95 B16 Sir with an oem helical that blew. I remember looking at that pos and an oem ITR and the ITR was significantly sturdier. Then again the EK is making considerably more power than I was back then. I would replace the oem diff if money allows especially if the car is going to be dragged on a tall slick on a regular basis.

The car is here so we can solder up some connections he only had time to tape together.
I forgot you had an SIR tranny and you’re absolutely right, it’s one wheel peeling very noticeably during the burnout. There’s definitely a good amount of ET to be lost with a spool. It’s going to break driveline parts, but I hope it sees a 9 before that happens.

quaife, mfactory or even obx lsd would def help him although his 60’s are pretty damn good as is, does this have boost by gear or just a manual controller?

What suspension is in it? That might help traction and keep you from breaking shit so often. Sounds awesome, congrats.

It definitely is and I told him I’d be real happy with a mid 10 since it was the first time driving the car at all. Then it ran that ET and trap on the first pass and of course you start thinking about 9’s. We’ll see what happens. We already have the wiring soldered, heat shrinked, loomed etc. up so the injectors and MAP sensor have proper connections. We checked the engine and compression was perfect despite the little injector wiring incident so all is well.

He got rained out all last weekend, but he’ll be out again soon if the weather is decent.
