I put Fuzzion's on my stock T/A and I'm impressed with how they hook. Maybe I just don't have enough HP for the tires to be that big of an issue. I'm sure your DR's are stickier, but for the street I don't think i'd want anything stickier then I have now (have a stone driveway & the first 1/2 mile is nothing but stones hitting the underside of my car).

500 RWHP does that.

Hell...I was blowing off my 275 Nitto DR's in 1st and 2nd gear. Upped them to 315's and it is just at the limit. Might have problems hooking in the upper RPM's even with these 315's once tuned.

You'll have to ask Danno. He told me it was $1,200. I was adding taxes.

I'm not in the market for it, cause I don't have to worry about it

YOU CAN'T SAY THE SAME!!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Mr. Luos]

That has to be a used one.

New the Moser 12 bolt is right around $2K.
And yes...sadly in order to really see what this car has in it...I need that rearend.

Should i be looking for a new rearend??? The car has 80K miles and im afraid somethings gonna happen at the track sooner or later.

If you have a 6 speed, don't drop the clutch. Bring your rpmps up between 3-4k depending on traction..just let the clutch out and roll into the throttle hard. You do this, you'll be alright. Dropping the clutch with sticky tires and a sticky surface is what makes the guys break the 10 bolt. I had over 400rwhp/rwtq with a P1SC on my car for a long time with the 10 bolt. Just FYI.

That is the reason I KNOW mine is gonna be dead soon.

Clutch is a SPEC stage 5.
