So no need to get a new tailshaft to use the M86 diff, sweet lol

So you just got the diff centre and cradle and she hooked up no worries?

Cradle, centre & axles... Also got the adjustable camber hubs with it too :)
The diff is overkill for this motor but the lower ratio sure helps get it off the line a little better. Cant break traction in any way at all. Done a VZ SS off the lights one night going to work LOL Road was wet, he was having traction issues and mine just bolted from the lghts.. He was not amused.....

Funny thing happenned a few weeks ago when helping my daughter and her B/F get some parts for their ED from down south.... We were discussing the paint on the roof of their car and said lets drop into Paint Supplies at Hendon and see what they have that may be suitable......

Checking along the isles of mistints, I spotted this...
Image

So I went, thats coming home with me!!!!!

The paint has been annoying me of late with some marks in the clearcoat, pain in the butt to keep clean etc etc but I must say the misses was not impressed one bit!!!!

Here is a couple pics of cars painted in Octane...
Just to give you an idea of the colour...

BF XR
Image

XC
Image

Picked up a few items on ebay for the old girl that will be done when the car is painted. Just got to get a shipload of sandpaper and primer now and a couple other minor things and I will be ready to get it resprayed again :D

Been playing around with the ICC of late and a mate lined me up with a ICC and Speedo from a Territory....Why you may ask... Cos they light up Orange lol.....

Anyways had a go at inverting the LCD while I was at it, turned out OK for a first ever attempt.....

Image

I am going to try and blend the XR & Territory ICC together somehow... But orange is different tho!!! Commandeared the kitchen table last night to do the XR LCD... So thats ready to go if I use that one instead....

There is a Octane BF XR 2.5 that is taunting me lately at Craigmore shops.... Its just goegous.... Dam it!!!!
