    Hi Paul!
    What tranny are you using? are you going with the S54 in nige's car or the stronger E153? The reason i ask is i've gone with the stronger E153 but now i'm strugling to find 4 stud Toyota hubs to fit the bigger sideshafts for my spyder.
    (sorry don't mean to hjack the tread)
    Any suggetstions?

    Nice kit: front lip wouldn't last beyond my driveway, though......!:)

    I'm probably gonna go the total opposite, and keep it as mundane and stock looking as poss.....?
    its gonna be difficult, as I am already planning to mod the lights, fit a TRD spoiler, and some subtle interior styling.......:whistle:

    I must be strong, and resist......even though the force is strong..!:twisted:

    If I DO fit a kit though, it will need to be a widebody jobbie...[:(

    We are going with the S54 with LSD and extended 5th.

    Do you mean the CV joint spline is too big? just use GT4 front CV joints,mind you the ABS won't work with those.

    The JDL looks pretty nice, but I have heard that it sometimes takes a little fettling to make for a really good fit.
    I think I may well go for near standard looks next time. My front lip takes a bit of a graunching. Its one of those things you have to accept if you have a kitted and lowered Roadster.
