New steering rack is here. Mr Peach approves.





Oh and i got all my fittings for my fuel setup. Here's a pic of them when i was comparing things for something on the MX6.

Delicious XRP goodness.

Passenger rear:


Both sides are test fitted, had a fitment issue with the tie brace back there, should be on this coming weekend.

STILL looking for the friggin' front LCA rear bushing brackets.

Some more progress. Having an issue with steering wheel going back on column. If i bolt it down, as you turn the wheel, it's catching on the turn signal and tripping that. Any input from anyone?

Cleaned the interior up some:




Finished mocking up the rear end. Sleeves are getting turned down this week, so i'll tighten everything back there this coming weekend.

(Pictures make the car look rustier than it really is. It's all just surface rust, brake lines will be replaced.)




Dark picture of the whole rear with tie brace installed:


Crossmember and some mounts installed. Minor fitment issues with the side mounts. (My fault, i didn't send the brackets with the mounts to be fitted.) I can fix them. Crossmember drilled for AWR Probe front mount.



Question: In this picture, you see the driver's side mount and the bracket it attaches to on top of the box. The bracket attaches to the bare metal portion in the right hand side of the picture, and offers a second "plane" for the mount to attach to for a 3rd and 4th bolt. How necessary is this bracket? Mount would still have the two bolts up top of that "beam." (Disregard, i'm going to grind down the mount to fit.)


Delrin bushings installed:

I may have accidentally a KH Laser front fascia.

You must set your bar higher. Much higher.

I love all of your cars

Same goes for you.

[I<3flippyheadlights]

But I only has one car.....

[concealer404]

That doesn't mean you have to love shitty cars.

[I<3flippyheadlights]

I'm either over thinking your statement, or there is confusion. I do like all of your cars, I think they are unique. MX3 is probably my favorite. But when I said, "I love all your cars". You said, "same goes for you" which would lead me to believe that you think I have more then one car.

I was saying that like Demon I Am, you must set the bar higher. ;)

I don't have an MX3, either. What are you doing?!?!?!?!

[I<3flippyheadlights]

I'm sorry, MX6. That car is stupid fast.

Lol that it is... that it is. You should buy it.

I can't believe I didn't see this 'til today! :facepalm:

What an AWESOME build!

I'll trade you a broken 1987 MR2

Tempting, depending on details and how much cash you want to put on top.

Awesomely stupid, perhaps. I've come to realize that i yet again took the most complicated route to get to my end goal. I'm slowly working on a "dual" write up of the build. The first portion being "what i did," and the second portion being "How to accomplish 95% of the performance for 25% of the work and price."

The comments are MUCH appreciated, though! I've been getting a bit burned out on this, and the positive thoughts help.
