Can I get away with using the type 9 spec tunnel dimensions ? Or at least reduce the 240mm down a little. I haven't got the diff off my car yet, and just wondered how small I can possibly go, where the tunnel still has enough room to function properly. Any help would be hugely appreciated !  |
The diff on the mx5 has got a propshaft that is offset towards the drivers side. On mine there isn't much space left over.
