Allright guys. My vl is doing my head in. I coverted it to manual last week and it seems to be mint. But on monday atfernoon i decided to put the oldgirl out on the street and annoy all my neibours, but as soon as i droped the cluch the diff just shattered.hahaha its about my 4th on this vl!!! Anyway ive changed the diff but my brakes arent right. They were never the best but now its soft and All the bleeding in the world aint helping..... I sorta need some help here cause im stumped. I replaced back cylinders on the diff. But still spongy!!!
Any help will b great

have you tried bleeding master cyl first? sometimes they can get air trapped in them

may not be related but have you just converted it to turbo?and are you running a blow off valve.
i had problems with my old car it would try to die when it came off boost and would have no vacuum for braking. It was due to it running a blow off valve when using an air flow meter you need to run a plum back blow off valve or just dont run one at all and dose it

Hey PSIWPN.... Fat vl bro!!!
Um no i havent yet turbod it, im just waiting to get back into work and make a few more dollars. I just need a front mount, piping and wastegate. Ive got everything else. Haha i wasnt planning on a blow off just str8 dose it....
Im in da process of sorting the breaks out, and prepping the car for a respray in silver, so hopefuly by early next month ill be 30e+t vl. Haha i was going to leave it as a skid hack but after seeing how many clean vls are rolling (not many) im making mine legit but still keen to treat in mean!!
