Exactly.
I had the subframe about 6" from the ground on rubber blocks and I had already started to unscrew the subframe (4) nuts so when I dropped the subframe on the blocks , I removed the nuts and lift the car back up.
If you clicked on the link in the previous post you'll see it can be done without a lift no problem on the 2nd page in the thread you'll see I'm using a stack of 2"X10" right behind the seats ( on the frame ) so when doing that you have nothing to bother you if you drop the rear subframe.

No news good news like we say.
Can't tell exactly how many miles ( KM ) since I've put the KAAZ in but I've already flushed the oil and in Canada it is hard to get KAAZ oil I went with Motul 90PA .






The car is day and night compare to last year and the reason is :
I have swapped my manual steering rack for a power steering one using a Toyota Electric Power steering pump + I have a differential that will lock anytime I need to so for me this is a new car this year.
I have some slight chattering noise just before the differential clutche engages if I baby it but as soon as I apply pressure on the clutch ( push the gas pedal ) it goes away .
I'm also getting use to it , this is a bit aggressive for regular street driving but man it is fun when you decide to play with the car it is very easy to predict how the car will react compare to my Viscous LSD that sometime was letting me go when I was sideways.
I have 391 RWHP with 387 Ft-Lbs of torque and 330 FT-Lbs of that torque is at 2000 RPM so this diff allow me to be able of some nice power slide in 2nd gear
I guess I can do it in 3rd gear too but I'm not much driver + if I ditch this car I won't be very proud of me .
I'm still learning the car after 3 years and I don't think I'm close to be done learning her .
I left some HP on the table with my camshaft and headers choice so next year I'll step the 400+ RWHP mark with my FC for sure.
