25 spline diff should handle up to 200rwkw, may more with an auto. 28 spline diffs are strong enough for any amount of power most of us guys are going to put through them You can imagine what would happen to the kit if the 15s popped Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

anyway back to the subject, $80 to fix my rim, stoked! you mean biscuit rims are for biscuit cars.

Sweet, just make sure the colour is right when you pick it up

Anyone know what a 25spline LSD is worth. Danny got hold of steelies a while ago and they said approx 1500$ for a rebuilt 28...

Biscuit model VLT's are worth more than your car on paper police rims are on the fastest of VL turbos........whats used on the drag strips in aussie??? a STRONG police rim thats what!!!! you dont see mags doing 8 seconds and i like the original look and what I like matters to me....doesnt worry me that you all want down syndrom calais fronts and huge mags with lots of guard rub....thats what you people like......its not what I like....to me this looks cool in the below pics and thats what I want mine to look like ...... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

this is Matt here, no guard rub whatsoever for me. MAXPSI 10 sec vl CALAIS on street tyres is all i can say.

Should be around $500-$600 to put an LSD in your 25 spline diff $1,500 was including brand new axles. If you can find some second hand axles then your up for around $1,000. Second hand axles go for around $400 "if" you can find some in NZ Aaron, I like the look of that car also. But you got to remember not all of us are building VLs to go in a straight line for 10 seconds. Maybe it's a Sound Island thing... we have corners to go around up here Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

not many corners down here!!!! especially canterbury....long straight flat roads!!! I just like yellow BT1's and I always have done for years!!! so thats what I am having lol Quote: Originally Posted by vanlowe this is Matt here, no guard rub whatsoever for me.

i think you'll find that they aren't actualy using police rims. they're using weld racing or the similar with m/t on them

the style of them looks like a police rim......they wernt styled to look like anything else......they needed a tough design Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yea i think it was. Danny has all the details. I think he has a diff now though. I was gonna see if they would do a deal on 2... Are you keen for one as well?

The LSD centre will be second hand out of a VN-VTs1 V8. N/A, turbo and V8 share the same diff housing Diffs R Us weren't very helpful when I did my diff... twice Call Tony at Steelie Gears (09 276 6297) he is very helpful and did an awesome job on my last diff Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Most 8 second cars have some pretty expensive paintjobs. I think the wheels are there for function, not looks All drag VLs should run FR's Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
