Re: honda shafts
Whoops, thought tranit meant your white van Colin, not the 340R.
Well done and hope that you did a good job on it.

Re: honda shafts
Allow me to translate for Super Mario.
Grease was escaping out the inner Cv joints, so replaced the gators with smaller ones, installed a breather and used high temp grease. Which is the same as the inner joints in my car, which are tippy top after a year and a half and 12000 miles. I have replaced the outer joints though.
Colin also has the stronger outer joints, as the standard joints aren't up to it.
I honestly believe that if you prep them properly, you won't have an issue (providing you have the stronger outers).
Just a bit of maintenance

Re: honda shafts
Craig, as you had 40hp more than that in your last two cars with no problem, is it the power delivery that is making the difference?

Re: honda shafts

Got me thinkning on how mental Andys atom must have been to control and then thinking about the 300
One thing I did notice was how easy his car was to catch, mines a lot more snappy.
