was yours the turbo one running 12s?

3

ha, no, mine is just a crappy daily driver running … 50s probably.

Ah well, Lesson learned. Don’t beat your beater.

4

how did it blow a chunk in the bellhousing if the diff is on the other side

:lol:

Don’t do burn outs in saturns…the diff pin rattles free and blows out the case :wink:

If you beat on it enough, that pin will come loose and ruin your week.

I already bought a replacement trans, and swapped it, but thanks. Anyone want to buy this thing? :smiley: Make an offer

both wheels spin your fine. same as justnormal 100+mph wheel speeds.

I guess Saturn people actually weld the pin so it cant come out.

13

hmm maybe i’ll see about getting that done, i generally don’t bother spinning the tires… but i really don’t feel like going thru this.

18

I have an idea…don’t drive the saturn like a jerk off…and like the DD that it is…
