1.1 Final Drive confirmé

  1. #1
    yo geeks.

    Just confirmation that the 1.1 Final Drive is weaker than my tolerance to alcohol... Yesh?

    Any examples of 1.1 FD's dying in their full explosive glory? Or is just a plot to keep FD prices high for the XSi's and S1's n shit?

    mucho love x x x

    as far as ive heard its the diff thats weaker in the 1.1 box not the fd itself

    Be interesting to know if they made it out of a different material or from a different forming process, wouldnt have thought they would have gone to the trouble though...

    It's mass production I can't imagine they opted for different grades either.

    some of the shafts are different lengths to complicate matters
