sadly, i have found a patch of paint on one door has gone funny, so i will have to repaint a few bits :? not a big issue but i wish it came out before i got it rego'd then it would not matter if it sat, i wanna drive it everyday and look for excuses to take it out....ice blocks anyone?

was booked in on monday for a crownwheel and pinion swap but alas both of the diffs i have recently got were 3.58 not 3.9 bugger! i am beginning to think that only ZZ's had 3.9 and the rest were 3.58

my last hope for the interim is my DOHC piazza, i am hoping it has a 3.9 rear, in the next week i will know!

cheers

3.58 could be as my pf50 seems happier at speed with only a 4 speed than my zz/z with a 5 speed.

of the 6 diffs i have had with ZZ discs only 2 were 3.9 (not including the diffs in my ZZ/T and ZZ/R)

therefore i am assuming they were diesel diffs with the disc brakes fitted

but after checking my pf50 diff it backs up my theory that only zz's had the 3.9 :cry:

You may already mention it some other posts, but what springs etc have you used on this car?

It sits beautifully .
