Looking at my schedule, I could maybe buy these in March and get them installed in July. In the meantime, one of you here is absolutely going to be doing this next as a stand-alone mod to a similarly modified car. I'm sure of it.
Man... Déjà vu.
At $150 for the kit, and 30 to 60 minutes of shop labor... feels like a slam dunk little project.

Thanks for the link into the Z forum. Liking the idea of getting these collars more and more. If I were a gambler, I'd bet that 4DRZ or the designer of planets will get these collars in between their first and second track day this year.

If my tune holds up I will probably be looking at some cooling mods first, but the subframe collars are definitely on the radar.

Diff flush & fill is probably a standard charge, like $120 or something, and irrespective of the car already being on the lift.
And the sub-frame collars are probably new to them, so they're hedging their bet at an hour or more.
Lego is right about that. Like most things, it can seem intimidating at first, but with hindsight it's not bad at all.

4DRZ, I'm 54 with feet of clay and a predisposition to pay people to do crap like this, and still I did this myself last year.
