I read somewhere the heatsink is directly mounted on the FET's..
you can always get the regular Sphere without the heatsink & fan.

Nevermind...I just realized that you weren't just talking about the fan, but the entire heatsink...

yeh..half my electronics are only partly on the chassis, there is plenty of clearence between the side of the chassis and the bodyshell, so theres plenty of room. Not sure about the JRX-S......weird car. Good luck

mine hung out the side of my type r with no problems at all, also the heatsink on the lrp is mounted directly on the FETS, i would leave it alone
