Baddy Member 62 Member For: 19y 1m 17d Posted 28/02/10 09:25 AM Posted 28/02/10 09:25 AM Hi all, I own a BA xr6 turbo 4 speed auto. I understand that with over 300rwkw I should start saving up to get the auto rebuilt. My question is, when is it time to upgrade the entire driveline, I.e. tailshaft, diff, driveshafts etc? Has anyone done this, and where is the best place to go in Melb? I recently broke the left driveshaft, and I'm worried more driveline parts are on the way. The car does constant 117mph at the moment. I'm going to upgrade to more power and I'm thinking I should look at doing the driveline first.Cheers

If you plan on dragging more then look at a stronger tailshaft and loop and shimming up the diff
