when i was buying my first car 3 years ago i was looking for a S13 or VLCT which ever i found first that was right. there was no decent VLCTs at the time. but really i was only looking in ACT. the S13 is a great car but want something different now and with 4 doors and turbo. im not a holden or ford (a little more holden) fan but theres just something about VLs that appeals to me.

Im guessing CV joint again. Pains of having a tight as fark LSD. Thats 6k for parts without a new centre which I will get done with 3.46 gears and a new LSD hemisphere. So add 1350 for that plus the boys to put it in as I dont have any tools or hoist to do it on.
