    New monroe rear gas shocks in, a bit stiffer, having trouble with the LSD only spinning 1 wheel.

    Cool man, out of curiosity, is your brace bar connected to the fire wall as well as the towers? or just the towers? Looks like a very clean car, should think about getting clear side indicators off a vt, the make vps look so much newer.

    The standard viscous LSD doesnt like to spin both wheels in the case of a burnout. They are designed for loose/slippery surfaces under normal driving circumstances. They do not "lock" such as a mechanical LSD. You can get standard LSD tightened but how you drive will determine how soon it will peg leg again
