They sure do!
Shoot, I'm excited to see yours finished!
I'm planning to order a one piece aluminum from the driveshaft shop.

^ It's not too late Danny! I could even help out, once I get the car running right. 
So this whole week I was stuck at work. My buddy was planning to head over to Driftmotion here in Montclair, CA for a new turbo set up. So he was nice enough to pick up my R154 and drop it off for me today. So it's going to be a week or two turn around for the rebuild and shifter extension.
Such excite!

There was an awesome meet last night at the Central Pine shop, the SerialNine boys came down from Canada in their JZS161, UCF20, and JZS171. They are a great group of guys!
Toyota Crown, I'm in love.
My son was loving it, running around and stopping to stare at all the dope cars.
One of locals GS430, low down track attack.
So much motivation!
So it was time to work on the car again.
The trans is already out, so it's a no brainer to replace the rear main seal.
Popped off the rear main cover also, I had a come back one time by not resealing it.
Cleaned up the cover. Don't forget to replace the O-Ring also!
Got this neat SST from home depot, a 4" plumbing end cap. It fits perfectly!
All done, FIPG'd and seal installed. The new tool worked *****in'.

Another small update.
Pulled out the wiring and solenoids from the A650e. I was going to make a resistor box, but this was easier and free lol.
Also, a MK4 Supra clutch pedal pad fits on XM's X7 clutch pedal. Best part is it was like $4 from the dealership. I still need to cut the brake pedal.

Thanks for the support guys.
Today,
I reinstalled the Supra 3.7 diff. Gear ratio should be okay with the r154 (3.9 is what came in the MK3s). This is temporary however. I'm looking to get a 4.08 SC300 diff from a buddy. Now that will be fun.

I don't mind the short gearing.
3.769 diff: Keep in mind this is using my 235/40R18 tires.
4.08 diff:
Not looking to do high speed wangan runs. Car is going to be mainly for grip, but I also want something I can slide with when I get the itch.
Although the 3.769 would be better for mpg..., but that's why I have my daily...

Here's the back of the adapter plate and a MK3 r154 front seal.
Installed.
Installed some braided wire sleeves on some wiring I did. Still need to finish and finalize the placement of the relay. Also bypassed the NSW.
