a broken diff every 16k? Need a driving lesson?
Actually no I dont! Neither of the two diffs actually blew up. I was able to catch them before any major damage happened.

I admit, I drove the car hard, and had a few launches, but I was stock at the time the factory diff was starting to go. The second diff was actually "defective" of you want to put it that way. The dealer where I had the third one installed took the second one apart and told me some of the parts were damaged in such a way that it was not caused by driving conditions, but rather the gears were not properly shimmed if I remember correctly.

After the first diff blew, I have not done any lauches, and just a few donuts at FWT since I was replacing my tires when I got back home anyways.
