    Can I ask are those 11" rear barrels for your BBS LM-R's, are they aftermarket barrels or actual BBS barrels?
    They are authentic 11" BBS barrels. Mark (@thee_deported on IG) who built my RSII sourced these for me. He's also trying to sell me a set of LM's for my X3M .lol

    New 11" rear barrels for my BBS LM-R's sitting on the rack. Picked up a new diff. CSL cams with Schrick DLC rockers, Chase Bays Power Steering Kit, and rebuilt yellow tag steering rack. More to come...!

    Yeah, redoing all the tint later next month. Go a bit lighter with Ceramic Prestige film while I get my clearbra done on the new Mile End Composites CSL front.

    I’ve considered the OS Giken but know it has a rebuild after a certain mileage which

    the money or back order isn’t the issue. I just think the osg is a bit of an overkill for this garage queen that will never see the track anyways. I’m just being honest here. Quaife is definitely an upgrade over stock at the end of the day and that’s not trying to penny pinch between that and a OSG diff.

    OS Giken seems like a pretty good solution.

    That's a torsen style, that is slower to lock, so if you are going for performance I'd look at clutch types. Stock is a clutch but viscous, clunky and slow to lock. Reason I ask is, I'm currently looking at giken/drexler units. Both are $$$$, but positives are performance, longevity, etc that are important to me and my use of the car. Just throwing it out there, not trying to throw off your build .

    Yep. Sure did. The sparco base has a point you can use to place it.
