A Damn shame, I tells ya...

Well, I hated to be a vulture, but at least her propshaft and diff are going to good homes mate...

(Which reminds me, Rich? - My missus is gonna kill ya... - I bagged the diff up for you, but her fiesta still got a carpetful of diff fluid lol!...

Anyhoo Shaun, seriously, thanks mate, and I'll be sending some wine wonga your way!

Ps - Thanks to Tom G. - I've found a place (The ONLY place I've found local-ish, who actually specialise in modifying propshafts!

Been doing it for 30 years apparently, and prices range from £50 to not a lot more, to modify a propshaft, they can do it in an hour or so, and I'm getting Shaun's old one mod'd this week hopefully!

So, I should be able to get it sorted ready for JAE after all lads!

if they're any good, I'll post the details up for you all just in case...

Sorry about hijacking the thread, but it's (kind of!) linked, as the Blue Beastie has given mine a new lease of life - Cheers Shaun...

Will you be having the prop shortened because you are running that S14 box?

I'd be interested to know how you get on, I need a custom prop for my car

can you not just use the front of the s14 prop and the s12 rear like you can when the s13 box is used?

Doubt it will work like that on my Datsun to be honest.

I have about 6 different props from various Nissan's I will try to pair up though, but expecting to not have much success.
