Well my rear diff is shot. Which im not upset about. A good excuse to get a better one. What im upset about is finding out for sure that i did warp my brand new rotors and it wasnt uneven glazing like I had hoped (aparently they are beyond repair/ machining ) Ididnt park with the brakes on or E brake went slowish on the cooldown laps...wtf, these werent cheap. DBA 5000 2 piece rotors. In a bad mood right now.

Do you know what actually failed on the diff?


For brakes, try and get some air on the. The calipers trap a lot of heat, and running lighter rotors is just going to encourage problems being generated as a result of that heat.
