Dont get me wrong the car is mindblowing and I effin love it. BUT. why is it just about everyone loves to put priority 1 as making retarded power, 2 planting it so its usefull and 3 holding it in the car? Even with people like this with the bank account to just drop $15K on another rear end and axles he already broke on a whim. We see it all too much with regular joe cars too, first thing they buy is a big fucking motor, boost it to the moon and toss it behind a stock paper mache driveline and either smoke the tires or make metal marbles. What does it take to make that driveline actually hold the power its making right now? ---

In my opinion, it’s cause it costs too much! Seriously, prices drop based on volume. Volume for beefier aftermarket subframes, diff cases, driveshafts, etc. is definitely less than t3/t4 turbo kits for a Honda d16x. Same applies to suspension/handling. ☹ ---

From the looks of things, money isn’t a problem and the guy is building it the way he wants and fine tuning along the way. Jesus, I didnt think it was that aweful of an opinion and question. But thanks for taking it offensivly. All I meant was, and Adam I am sure you see it too, is just about every customer and especially tire kicking customers are so fast to look right at big badass HP as a primary goal. Then ignor or cross their fingers on it being able to actually contain the power. Its usually the low buck guys that would rather, for example, put $2000 into a big ball bearing turbo and massive intercooler to make big power, instead of spending $1500 on a built tranmission and putting a set of cams in for more power. I know I did it, and learned how much it fucking blows not having money and time to fix broken shit every 1kmi. And no I dont fucking know everything else about the car. Thats why I asked the simple question. Figured I might learn a bit about some badass engineering behind some parts I probably wont have the luxury of ever holding. sorry I even bother’d replying ---
