Diff Question
Hey guys,
I'm having to much trouble with the one way so i'm building up a diff, I searched back through the threads and found the list I need for it, but according to the suppliers at work, the thrust washer you need is discontinued (the one for the 04). Does anyone know how to obtain it or has it changed part number?
If they have changed part number, can someone give me a news list of part numbers to use? thanx.

bloody good question
very good question, wish i knew the answer, apprantly they are, but hey, who knows, i'll ask our local tamiya guru when I see him next (owns every damn tamiya car ever made, usually 2 of each lol)
but in the mean time, the only way I can think of doing it is buy the 04 dif set and taking parts from that :S

oh well, I can't wait that long to get it from japan (i'm in australia) i'll buy the 04 diff and use the parts out of that, i have an 04 anyway so i'll uses the other bits as spares, you know the piece of plastic that slides down into the diff, where the locknut sits, is that the same for the 04 as it is for the evo?
