we just got our regular teacher back a month ago. for most of the semester we had substitute after substitue. one even brought in his ps2 and challenged someone to a race in GT3. it was okay but now that we have our regular teacher back its work, work, work.

There was some debate on the Impreza boards a while ago about the Impreza STi's "ability" to alter it's torque split to 50/50, primarily because of the misconception that diffs can alter torque splits.
There's no way to change the ratio of the planitary diff that's after the clutch pack, it will always be 35/65, even in varying states of lock, it will be 35/65. The clutch just varies how much it locks. If the pack is open, the center diff will act as an open diff, and the power will travel the path of least resistance (a good example of open diffs in action are when cars do 1 wheel burnouts.) Locked, the diff will not allow any slipage, but will still resort back to its mechanically fixed power ratio of 35/65. While it may seem like 50/50 because all four wheels are forced to spin, it's not. The torque split is set mechanically in the planetary diff, and there is no way to alter it without rebuilding the unit.

that's weird, I copied and pasted my post to notepad, but it doesn't like one of the paragraphs... gives me a 403 error.
Maybe I should clarify. when I was originally trying to post, I kept getting a 403 error, forbidden access to Yabb.pl (IIRC), so I copied the post to notepad so I wouldn't lose it. Figured I give the server a few mins. I tried again, same result, but my "test" post worked, so I tried posting a paragraph at a time. It took the first few, but it gives me the 403 on the third.
