2 Questions....
I got the m05 MiTo model and as I was putting it together it dawned on me that the diff isn't sealed and needs something to keep it from diffing out. would some really heavy diff fluid work? I was thinking 300k or even heavier?

The guy at the lhs said he has one and he just used some shoegoo to lock it. I don't want a locked diff do I?

Also, I just realized that this model is the long wheelbase. The guys at the track I'm racing at said i need the medium wheelbase. Can the wheelbase be adjusted? I thought I read somewhere that they are.
