In need of a drivers side driveshaft, and possibly an LSD if the worst happens on short notice.
Car kicked it's driveshaft out today on the motorway, chewed the ends of the teeth so needing a new one and hoping my LSD is ok bit worst comes to worst I'll need one of them aswell.
Supposed to be at the ring next Friday so I'm in a hurry lol
 
Yeah I'm alright. Nearly squashed by a truck at the road side, my brother towed me home a good 15miles in his ep3, that's the last time I called it his ep3 a fake type r lol
 
As long as you're alright pal. And haha, bet you got home pretty sharpish eh? :)

Drive safe bud!
 
I've put the cup back in and it won't come back out without leverage as normal, which says to me that it's ok in that respect. So maybe something forced it out, engine mount?
 
Right so I've sourced a shaft.
Now if the box spits this out tomorrow I'll be on the hunt for either an LSD, or an LSD gearbox.
Not fussed if s4c,s80,s9b. Just a usable box with LSD lol
 
How the hell did your driveshaft come out I can't understand that,did a cv joint let go or something?
 
Nope everything was bolted up tight, the cv hasn't snapped it anything. The bolt was still on, the cv was right at the end of its travel to come out.
Cars not low and camber is around 3.5degrees and has been for a good 2 years.
 
I'd just had an alignment done so perhaps the apprentice disturbed it while under there? Pulled on it or something?
 
Nah me neither, shocked aswell, I thought it was wheelspin at first.
 
How the **** does that even happen lol
Suicidal drive shafts
You are right though EP3s are fake Type Rs
 
Glad your ok Jesse. All that boost. Did the driveshalf literally come out or did it just get chewed up ?
