Default broke the civic last night :(

1991 hatchback, 1.6l single cam, turbo, 400+hp, 24.5x8.5 slicks. Trying to get into the 10s both axles broke before the 1/8 mile mark. You see broken axles there all the time, never seen or heard of one breaking both.

No, they're fidanzas. Dont look much better than stock. I surppased their hp rating by quite a bit so this wasn't a surprise.
