Cool Newbie Alert!!!

Hi there, I am on the fetal stage of my 7esque project and imagine that by the time it is my "screaming baby" it will be after the 2009 so more than likely she will be needing IVA!

My concerns of the project are actually from the diff I am using. When I was using my mkII escort as a "runabout" I fitted an ATB quaife diff (which has been fun using it on the odd autotest! ). When I took the car for mot's I told the MOT tester it had a LSD and he never checked the balance on the rear brakes but tested them together. I was told it would damage the diff if he did. Anyway, if I use this axle in the 7 how can the tester for SVA/IVA check the balance of the brakes? Or is the balance test breaking diffs just a line?

Thanks in advance
Andy
