#213648 Im leaning towards your mounts. I have a buddy that had the same problem. He had an automatic integra, and made it a manual. Well, he messed up on some mounts and the motor wasent sitting properly, and snapped his axles every time he went to the track too

#214658 NOt sure why you are breaking axles with out loads of power, but I will just blame the cut springs. Whether or not they are the problem, I blame them. WOrst thing to do to a suspension.

#214784 Stupid idea to cut springs. Hope you don't drive that car on the road, you could probably kill someone
