    Default Torsen install

    A truck dropped this off at my world headquarters this afternoon!

    I'm taking best offer since I don't recall ordering a Miata Rear end! :P

    $6.99 at Vatozone for the 6 point... I just rented the one I used on the Civic, though... If I'd known it was the same size for the Miata...

    When are you doing this? Can I help? Can we install it backward and make it an unlimited slip?
