we tested those units 3 years ago, they will not fit, it is the machining for the stub axles, neither jza70 or ma70 stub axles shafts will fit better off to save money to rebuild the factory one, or get a trd unit that will fit in there perfectly

This is one of the first OBX products I've seen that Doesn't fit or work just as well as the product they copied. Every other seen I've seen or used from them has been great.

In the Mini world, the OBX diff is actually Better than the "real" one.

I trust almost everything they make, though usually try to find somebody first who is using it. But in general, its all the same stuff guys... same factories in the same countries, just discount or high-end labels

Everyone rants and raves about it for a reason. Tomei is sick as well, but see, this is a Supra forum, get them to make one and i'll sell it

Lol need to look harder. Most of their stuff requires some kind of modification somewhere. Even their 7MGE headers dont fit right. I believe its Robert who pre-modifies those for people so that they do become direct bolt on and you dont have to do anything to them

Not with everything. There's plenty of good cheap stuff, when it comes to a non sofisticated part. Like those JVT rads (those sure were cheap and good), piping, intercoolers and stuff like that. Its just aluminum welded together, not too many different ways to do that.
