    i don't know whether you feel like being guinea pig or not mate but this looks like a good price. could be the old adage, buy cheap, buy twice though...

    if you need any help with any shipping from the UK i might be able to sort something with my folks...

    ^ why you'd be game enough for the 2nd, 3rd or 4th go after the first one i'm not too sure...

    Could be done at my joint...I would suggest doing it on home turf just in case thing get..ahem..."difficult".
    From memory (which is constantly fading) the ring gear is riveted onto the OEM diff...so they will have to be drilled out.
    Best to be done on a drill press. A la...

    This is a Mk6 GTI diff...but I think the set-up is similar...Best liaise with The Master of all things 9N (AKA Gav).

    Alan, very keen to hear your feedback and comparison on the plate diff, though I can't really justify the cost. I've driven the red car daily this week and I think to make it more streetable that a LSD would help.

    I'm considering to sell the silver polo to run the red one daily.
    I'm selling my Wavetrac LSD Sean. I'm not sure it'll fit into your car though? If it does let me know and I'll do special price

    I've made hood vents with a Dremmel, they came out alright.

    Can't see why an LSD couldn't be done also...

    Can't Karl or Gavin build you an LSD anyway Sean???
