Moved to S2000 Talk, more people will see it and respond to your question.

But as far as I know, No.

Thanks. So far we have "none" which is good to hear. I'm really considering getting my differential done before the track opens.



I want to make 1 run on slicks! Oh wait, my clutch won't handle it. Gah.

I'm also considering this since my diff went bye-bye last night. My only concern is if the diff it TOO strong the shock may be transferred to the transmission. If that's the case I'd rather keep blowing the diff

Any thoughts on this?

I think as long as you have they cryo treated, they will be fine. Unless you do like five 8000rpm clutch dumps per day.

But I'd really like to know if anyone has blown thier diff after a cryo treatment. The only person I know of who has had the treatment done is Wesmaster.

For $50, I don't see why more people don't do it. I can blow $50 at a bar in 4 hours.

Really though, on the cryo treanments. As soon as many people start buying these, we should get together to send at least 5 to 10 at a time to have this done so the price can be reduced.

Rick's or another sponsor could be the shipping and recieving point. Just an idea.

lightweight, Then again $50 in a bar in TX probably buys 10x more drinks then in NYC.
