Hotpart has awesome prices and their customer service is just as good. If you are going to go with the Tokicos, you would be good to go with Hotpart.

Just a quick note. Was finally able to get a good run in with the new driveshaft. No unusual NVH or anything noticable. Did a couple spurts to 80+, the freeways here are crap so that didnt lend itself to a smooth ride,stupid trucks. Potholes aplenty. When I did find a smooth surface and hit speed, zero defects! I have noticed that there is a definite pick up or quickness to Get to the sweet spot in the powerband now. Needless to say I am happy.

Not true! Leo, Brian, Luis, and even George's PJ have hit the rain before. I heard that Torch Reds may melt in the rain, so I ain't takin' any chances!

Let's see.. O/R-H, MGW shifter, GT500 e-brake, lowering springs (and possibly D-Specs)...
Pizza & beer, that's what I'm talking about... and maybe even Pink's too!
Between me, George, Leo, Brian, and me.. with Jed and Kevin as support, we can knock out the whole install in less than 4 hours. But, it's going to cost you Luis.

But having the CPK hookup is always a good thing!

Thank the good D-Shaft Gods!

It was a very clean install, no problems, and we did everything by the book and torqued to spec. With the assistance of 2 certified A&P Mechanics, you can't go wrong!

I'll work on updating Leo's thread tomorrow.

BTW, Everyone is welcome at a install party. We had plenty of sodas, water and gatorade even. It's just the beer got all the glamor shots. A diet pepsi just isn't as sexy....



Just to add for no reason, I am so freakin sore today. Jeez I'm getting old.

Pepsi not sexy hummm Ya See!
