944 use Type IV CV's. 100mm od and then the rest - uh, check the link again...

930 cvs are 108mm od.

I have a set of 944 axles - I'll try to get you some measurements - oal of the axles, distance between the CV bodies in the next couple days. If I don't post something by Sat, badger me about it.

The link you posted, axles_cvs , has lengths for the 944 axles. Apparently Porsche 924/944/VW 181 Thing are all the same. They are all grouped together anyway.

Better change that post before Yoshi sees it or you'll have a war on your hands lol. Personally, I think you'd want to go heavier duty on the a-arms. Arrowhead managed to pull off .065 somehow, but to be safe, I would go with the thicker stuff.

Never heard of a 7. something to 1? It's made for a Dana. The input shaft has 7 teeth, and the teeth are cut into the shaft. It's not much larger than the input shaft itself. Granted it is heavy, but it is out there. I should look into running a tranny like arrowhead, but gut it, and use 1 gear.

I like the overall look. Most important is that the car seems to have good suspension geometry. Same car as the pink girly car with butterfly wings.
