Someone please help me :)

Can someone please help me with a little experiment.

Lift up your GSR / EVO / VR4 on one side so both front left and rear left wheels are lifted off the ground (could be right, doesnt matter).

Then spin one of the wheels and note what the other one is doing. It should be turning in synch with the one your spinning.

Cheers :drool:

It should be turning in synch with the one your spinning.

Only if you have a locked vcu or a mechanical centre lsd.

Yeah pretty sure open diffs make the other wheel turn the opposite direct to the one you are spinning.

 

[evopwr]

were mech centre LSDs an option in w5m33 boxes (evo2) ?

Hang on, are talking doing this experiment when the gearbox is in neutral, or in gear?

oops sorry should have mentioned, definitely in gear.

Then I would think that both wheels would go in the same direction even with open diffs everywhere.

would agree with you on that one rob

 

[evopwr]

i could do it on mine but i have no diffs, tail shaft or gearbox at the moment so it wouldn't be much good to you
