Yep, you sure can. The bearings try and make an exit out of your hub.
Solved this by chopping down and bolting in some old knackered driveshafts I had...

Cheers man. You wouldn't even know it was dipped until you put it next to real carbon fibre.

Cheers lads. I should copy and paste all the blog across.
Had some serious issues lately, bought an S1 rallye box with quaife LSD but the LSD is broke, so back on my old gearbox now.
Now trying to wire in the KMS lambda display, for some reason the reading I'm getting are all over the place, need to look into it.

So pretty sure the actual lambda sensor is no good, going to whip it out and get another, hopefully should cure that.
Ill get some pictures soon but mounted the battery in its correct position tonight, and properly wired in the kill switch. Started mounting the fuses boxes etc properly under the dash too.
Currently deciding on who to take it to for mapping. Ideal choices would have been sandy or AT speed, but being 5 hours away at the opposite end of the country isn't ideal. I've had a few suggestions of people more northern so ill make some phone calls and take it from there.
The list of jobs to complete is so small now, seems mad that after 3 years and various attempts to sell up its going to be on the road very soon. Exciting times

As above, that's it.
Thanks for all the kind words.
I don't think there's too much more on that blog than what I've put over here, just the very recent stuff.
