I had one fitted to my blue 5 a few years ago now, sold it on as i had no benifit with it at the pod but for the track i'd rate them very highly.

it's done 10 miles. No, not R11T, that's 4.07. The 4.83 is custom, £450 (+VAT?). You'd need to sort out a driveshaft as mine are longer than standard.

Just had a gripper fitted, and was told by company who fitted it, that driveshaft did`nt need altering as gripper modified the diff.

Had the gearbox fitted and the driveshaft DONT fit and DOES need altering :mad:

Racing beginning of november and need driveshaft altered, spoke to few companies this morning and not interested as its for a race car, bespoke item 6 weeks.

Can anyone recommend someone or is able to do this.

Thanks
