There's a shop in North York called Canadian Cylinder Head Tech. They share a building with Dynamotorsports tuning shop and do tons of work for them, and recently built a 2jz that is making well over 1000whp. They did the machine work on my 7m and the costs were very fair. Give them a call and...

Park!? Why not drive!? post up some pics

It has more to do with the stress on the bottom end. Think about a bicycle and how hard it is to pedal in a high gear at low speed. You have to be in the correct gear according to your vehicle speed and rpm. Basically WOT at 2000rpm in 5th gear is not a great idea.

+1. I would also like to see a new lip option, as I am in the market for one.

CCW K57. I like how the spokes curve in a bit, but then again.... lol

You can also pack it with grease and hammer an 8mm socket into the hole, a bit messy but it works

The mk3 looks naked without trim. Not that I don't appreciate good body work for a unique look but, like destrux said, it looks unfinished.

Looks great! Any interior pics?

Found this thread a while back about using a Ford Ranger part. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?137883-How-to-Replace-a-MKIII-Driveshaft-Carrier-Bearing-for-50 I've never done it so I can't give and insight but, it's an option.
