I'm thinkin' "you tube" and burn outs....lol....

 

Same here!

 

I'm thinking 11.6........

 

Nice Mike... I'm hoping for 11.99

Of course I have to: 1) find a drag strip, 2) finish reading the German rulebook and 3) convert numbers at the track to mph/miles...

Oh yeah, I guess #1 should be get my diff... Lol

Subject: update - housings are complete




Hi Jim,

housings are complete.
gearing is at heat treat (last step) so will
have parts late next week to do first builds.
You can post the pic if you wish!

Thanks
Dana

 

Great! I will have funds ready!!!

 

I'm curious, and I'm sure there are many here who can answer my question,
(just in case there is ever another "group buy" like this again).
Would it be a prudent option for "ANY" 6 spd. NA owner (who likes to drive in a more spirited manner than average) to consider this purchase?
I mean, I can only remember one person blowing their cars differential by dumping their clutch at too high of an RPM once too often.
Sure we only have 215 H.P. from the factory, but with the mods currently available, the 3.2 can generate over 260+.
Inquisitive minds would like to know?

 

My rear end was whining in my limited way back in 05/06

 

Looks like I need to get my rear end pulled sooner than later.

 

I'm wondering how soon their shop can turn around on a diff install...? Will I have the diff back in time for Carlisle?

 

tom unitrax has a 24 hr turnaround once they recieve the diff. shipping is another matter

 

Jim, will Devon have a "how to" written up, or photos and such....???? For those of us that are going it alone...or even a "hot" line for questions during the install...

better yet....PM me his info again...I'm sure it here somewhere...lol

P.S.S. Never mind JIM...it is in the first post....Duh!

 

Outstanding!

Sweet! I'm glad my new rear is sitting in his shop awaiting it's new guts!

Good things come to those who wait...

 

Thanks Dog, but a whining rear end could have just been a bad pinion bearing.

My question, is there anybody here who knows how strong (or how weak) the NA's rear end actually is, and is it likely to suffer similar destruction as the SRT's do from abuse?

Or is it beefy enough to withstand most of the punishment it's likely to ever receive from our 3.2's "Passive Aggressive" engine? So there really is no need for the Wavetrac LSD modification.

Its a weak link on the Crossfire, Just depends on the amount of abuse. This mod it still cheaper than a new Diff. .... unless a used on is found.

 

it will help immensly when planting the power to the ground for drag racing. both wheels getting the power evenly. it will also allow you to plant the power evenly thru the turns on a roadcourse. the bonus is that it is stronger than anything that mercedes makes for the car. so it eliminates a weak link that plauges the car. the last reason is that its cheaper than the oem unit if you did have to replace it. 1050 for the wavetrac vs 3000 for the oem. pick any of those reasons and thats why we had them build the wavetrac

 

Me too! I will have a spare stock diff sitting here.... soon??? looking for a new home...

 

This is all great and good for you guys that are going to actually get one, but moot points for those not on the list. Hopefully they'll see fit to make several more of these as they will surely sell. Are you guys going to be upset if they make 10 more and sell for $1,050. with no waiting? Another question I have is; What is the next weak link after this install? Didn't Rudy C. twist a driveshaft with big power?

 

i dont see any reason for anyone to be upset if they continue to build the lsd for everyone who wants it. not to many nanybooboos on here! there are more than a few pioneers who built things that others wanted after it was all done. ie: theres a fantastic c/f hood that built for 1 and a bunch got great hoods out of it. woody with all his mods built out of his own pocket. you get the idea.

no science for this but im guessing the carrier bearing or flex plates would be next on the weak link list. possibly those skinny little axles
