VERY nice stuff!

Make sure you post a review of the gains you see with the drivesahft, I want to hear some first hand experience, especially with SR.

Also have you noticed much different with those rear JIC toe links? I'm thinking about getting some...:D

I dont know if you noticed in the last pic but the car is not done yet! LOL I made a ton of suspension changes so its going to be hard to say what each piece is doing once I get it on the road. I will post up what I think though! ;)

gains from an aluminum drivshaft will probably be a little bit better response. its lighter, so rotational inertia should be better. basically, upsides are about the same as pulleys. btw, where did you get your aluminum driveshaft from? enjuku racing?? love your car..

Thanks everyone. Car has been a work in progress for a few years now and I finally decided to do it right!

I sell an alum driveshaft as well. Dont want to make this a comercial post of any sort but I try to install parts that I sell. That way I have personal experiance with the parts and can help with install questions, etc.
