bravo 35 Report post Posted June 29, 2009 Euro-Italian - forum sponsor. Gives a discount to members. I've never broken one. Perhaps you should be doing less skids, or learn how to do them without breaking your doughnut. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

323e30 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2009 does your car shake while driving much? Sounds like it could be an un balanced driveshaft if the doughnut has buggered itself more than once. had the same prob in my wagon from using two different halve shafts and not balancing it. = cracked doughnut within 8000kms. I have mint used doughnuts to fit that model 25$ postage included. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have mint used doughnuts to fit that model 25$ postage included. This car is 100%stock so i dont see why the drive shaft is unbalenced but i will look in to it,could save me some money lol,the doughnut stuffed out quite bad because it had done 250,000 KMs lol and then i started drifting and skidding,i replace just the doughnut, started with skids again and the noises came back pretty fast lol but it was the centre bearing, changed the centre bearing and then it was the doughnut again so now ive just bought a centre bearing and need a doughnut and im changing them both but after i get it balenced lol ill PM you for that doughnut or are you in Aucks i can find a way to get to you thanks nutter Edited June 30, 2009 by nutterbutter Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
