Only one problem - light that always on is too strong... so turn light cannot be seen good...

Looking good Konstantin!

I'm glad the light fit okay so you can pass inspection.

As for shifting, I just go by feel. Shift as soon as you can do so without vibrating the car.

My inner cv joint is going to be dead soon

Can someone give me parameters of it? I mean sizes, number of teethes from inner/outer size? I'm unable to remove my joint without damaging it. I only know, that from inner side (which is connecting with drive shaft) it have 19 teethes. But I dont know any sizes. Can you help me, please?

Here are the inner and outer spline (teeth) counts.

inner joint teeth count : 22
outer joint spline count : 24

It is the same for both driver and passenger sides.

NAPA auto parts part numbers:

Left : NMD 957120
Right : NMD 957122

Maybe a parts store near you can find the correct part by searching for those numbers? Those numbers are for the whole axle, not just the joint. I don't know any parts places that sell only the joint, and it is good to replace the whole axle anyway because usually if one joint goes bad, the other will go bad soon too.

strange, but I have another teeth count on my axles... probably, I counted wrong Thanks!

i didnt see anyone answer it but i usually shift anywere between 2500 and 3000 rpm, that averages 35 ish mpgs, i kinda skimed the posts but i assume you are doing mostly city driving... and great looking car, i want a right hand drive....

[kjchernov]

Make me a favor, please... Can you tell me, will this inner joint fit to my car?
