I use a company called MYUS.com that Kish introduced me to im 2015. So the items get shipped to them and then to you. They are able to consolidate items and send it all to you in one parcel. Very convenient if you gettinf things from multiple places.

Update time

Still catching up with last years updates

So a lot of work was put into the car in terms of suspensions.

Kw V2 coilovers
E9x m3 suspensions (control arms etc) for front and rear
And then finally an M factory LSD....I cant even recall if I yodated the thread with this mod but Damn it's a such great thing to have. I carried it out last year and just gave the car so much more control and ability to put the power down.

Another small mod carried out was the rear DiFF mount bracket that was ordered through RENNZPORT. This aids in keeping that diff in place by providing more support.

Easy to install provided you get the car up high enough and easier if you have an extra set of hands.

Generic pics off the net as I've lost most of my build pics through theft which occurred last year.

Damn this car just keeps getting better and better. the M3 diff sounds like a major upgrade, must have made a huge difference. how much better does the car feel with the M3 control arms etc? Was it a very noticeable improvement?

The m3 suspensions was a definate upgrade. Car handles like it's on rails. Turn in is much more precise and car feels planted.

The lsd you really feel the difference on track and its bloody awesome. Really happy with these upgrades and I have no idea why I left the LSD for 12 months on my garage before fitting it.

Time to get a cracking....

A big upgrade to the drive train on my Madala was the M factory Lsd supplied by RENNZPORT. It sat in my garage for roughly a year before finally deciding to get it fitted. One my biggest concerns was the THUMP sound a lot of people reported when moving from park to reverse to drive.

Installation was not as simple as we thought and in typical fashion, my car always DEMANDS extra steps to be taken in order to get something done

Pumpkin removal was easy and once opened we removed the bearing to reuse them on the new lsd. Surprise surprise...they wouldn't fit . Spent the next few days trying every bearing place we could find to get a perfect fit and came up empty handed. Bearing Man in JHB finally decided to put in a special order and we bit the bullet and purchased it. A week later bearing got delivered and everything was closed up ready for testing...


How does it feel....absolutely brilliant and worth every penny. Power is put down much better, cornering is brilliant and coupled with all the suspension mods and diff brace, the cars feel completely different. Also happy to report that no funny thump noises when moving from park to any gear.

RACEDAY 2019.....


Immense fun for my 1st time out on the track.
The M3 control arms with the KW v2 suspension and the Lsd really made a difference in the handling of the car. My biggest mistake however was not putting track pads on for the brakes which resulted in terrible fade. None the less, had an awesome time
