If you want the warrenty and red in the US, buy an LRP and then buy a Nosram case 
JohnA I think your best bet is to find another car with the right sized kingpin, I know RC Lab have nice titanium kingpins that use the M3 thread but have too small a smooth section for the Cuda's standard hubs, may fit the Excel hubs. The kingpins are made by Titanium Racing, I'm sure they make them for a few other cars too. Best measure the size required and ask them if they have any that are the same.

I know It sounds unlikely but I wondered if anyone had any better ideas, maybe getting the hubs drilled to fit the flange pipes is the way to go.

It's difficult to get R2's now
If only I had plenty cash spare, EA's cuda looks so nice and would be a perfect "backup" to mine
Still kinda shocked that something so bad could have happened to make him sell it, he seemed to be going so well with it
