Yo ppl, well my HD clutch and slamming into 2nd at ~8000rpm one too many times has finally caused a major driveline failure...Tore the driverside CV joint completely, it made a spectacular smashing sound at about 50km/hr and ripped the car about 2m to the left....we muscled it to a nearby BP where as the funny vids will show : the shaft completely disconnected from the box causing my shitty open diff to spin free and leave me stranded...in addition at that point the control arm popped off the pillow ball joint due to the inside of the rim ripping into it when we were babying it on the road....lucky no damage to TEINS....
I guess its time to put the ae101 lsd box in

She's back on the road, as it turned out my disc rotor grinded away half of my lower ball joint below the hub....bitchin...LOL
$29 brand new replacement balljoint
$275 driver side complete drive shaft and cv unit from wrecker
$20 beer
question : if the CV is completely separated (ie in 2 pieces) is it still repairable?
