Got abit more money to spend on the car. Would it be best to get an LSD or crank and rods lightened/balanced and the other usual mods.

I'd say pistons. Saul Bellow - "A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."

I'd say diff. You could do either and get away with it but I personally think that extra grip at your current power level, and the ability to keep grip while you up the power abit more on the standard internals (we know they are good or it just watch your revs) is a better way to go than getting the bottom end lightened and balanced and upping the power while loosing grip levels. You won't see full benifits that way round IMO. |

My choice would be Quaife ATB, Pre-verto or RTS Clutch much more boost. Then if funds permit go for the crank, rods & then if you have trouble with the std pistons upgrade. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

Does it keep it in more of a straight line then nic? If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

Yes, i seem to recall that once I had tightened up the ball joints it would squat down and go in a straighter line than previous attempts |

Loose balls can cause problems. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |
