Only the front for my case.


Check out the comparison pics page to why i chose to do the big upgrade.



See the thing is, it would be very unfeasable to machine down one end of a 30mm blank rod, to 23mm, as the size thickness of a starlet gt. Despite its high tensile 4140 steel, It would be very stupid to do it.

Now that the axel will be fatter and solid, it will last forever in my application. The axel should be good for over 1000HP, so yeah, bulletproof in my 3sgte application.

Nice job.

Are you using the 3sgte inner cvs? If so they'll be your biggest limitation, they have been known to break at 300hp but there are alternatives available.

I know of some one that went rear engined with the supra engine and that was running 5 stud due to it having a supra rear axel also what about the Evo powered one that has been seen on tracks running an evo drive train would that not be 5 stud too!!!lol!!!! I might have to put land cruiser hubs on mine so I can say I have 6 stud and my dads bigger than yours too!!
