If you are trying to get the most out of the car then yes. A light weight, low friction rear axle will take less horsepower to operate. Will there be a night and day difference, no. Will it be faster, yes. I had Mark Williams gun drilled 35 spline axles and a chromoly gun drilled spool in my black notchback. That car performed.

If it was my car and I had the extra cash to do it, then I would do it.

strip series 1

fs308 · June 28th, 2009, 03:06 PM

so i was just sitting here thinking ive still got a lot to do before i can even get this car going.

i need:
rear brakes
gears
axles
9in ends
a motor (big duh)
trans
rear shocks
driveshaft
trans mount
and wheels and tires

also since the car was a 4cylinder car dont have to run brake lines to make it disc brakes in the back?

88-gt-t-top · June 29th, 2009, 03:05 PM

LMAO, I too am selling a set of 4.10's.... No i'm not, but real quick If you planning on buying strange parts and all that why not just by a housing from them? with everything else you need

thats what i been thinking about. i think i am going to go 9in also. so i think my strange spool may be for sale. i dont think a 8.8 spool will work in a 9in rear unless someone can clarify for me

88-gt-t-top · June 29th, 2009, 03:29 PM

Whats wrong with using the 8.8?

baine21225 · June 30th, 2009, 12:04 AM

there really isn't a reason to go with a 9 in if you already have the 8.8 stuff....they can be basically indestructable

fs308 · July 1st, 2009, 02:55 AM

i would have to buy everything pretty much thats why i am considering doing the 9in.

also i may be picking up a cowl hood this weekend if everything works out
