IN RWD wrx NO DRIFTING THO (breaking in)

just crusing the streets the other night, just getting used to all the new noises and trying not to break the puny rear diff.
Im going to weld the r160 in the back and start sliding it because right now its so super ******* 1 wheel peal i have never imagined something so bad.

I love boxer 4's.

Especially with a nice, deep exhaust.

New daily? Dont know much about them. 2 of my friends have one. One with a kkk k03 and one with a stock turbo i guess. Like i said, dont know much. They're fast and sound like sex.

How did you do the rwd conversion? Just talk out the front shafts and plug the transmission? That's how one of my dsm buddies did it in his awd 1st gen in charlotte.

yea im doing it right the first time so im not going to slide it just to break it in an hour with a open shitty r160 rear end.
i have had this car for almost 4 years it has been broken before so i know that rear end is just asking for failure.
