Re: Setting up diff with solid pinion spacer

Holy crap. What's wrong with these bearings? (it's my diff)

Re: 1FZ turbo clutch

was talking to the spares bloke at work the other day, he said apparently the exeady hd clutches are only 15% heavier in spring weight, thats not a great deal more really, although i doubt it will work out the same percentage in power handling increase

Re: what to use for lux brake upgrade

it shouldnt matter what ratio the box is, as the speedo drive is in the transfer, running off the output shaft speed, the only thing that will effect speedo when its here is the final drive ratio, meaning diff gears and tyres the problem you have may be caused buy the other gear for the speedo drive...
