Hi,

we're planning to put k24/k20 into it. there are 5 people working over this project. srt garage team

i have a spare k20a2, so at first we're going to "operate" with k20a2 and make it run drive. Then second stage is going to be a swap with k24/k20. engine specs are 270hp and 300Nm at this moment. Of course N/A

That was engine part but...
The very first stage is taking the rust out by "sanding" body and welding some main construction points to avoid fallin apart ;D then probably cage.

Then suspension. Choosing out of 4thgen civc or 5th. halfshafts and etc etc etc. I think we're going to leave rear suspension, Just regenerate dampers and strenghten and lower springs. It's all just mysty plan its going to evolve every week

Any suggestions are welcome at this part of project!

The whitesmith is coming this monday and we'll see what he says about bodywork.

Then THE egine ebay... i know that the cover of the gearbox has to be filed off a bit and engine bay dented and cutted a bit to fit

but it'll take a long time before we reach that stage

we'll going to do it after all main bodywork is done.

this is a short photostory of we've done. it's just a shortcut of 3days of work

brand new japanese car 28 years later

interior

ok, enough of sweetness let's go to hardcore part

good luck. looks like fun

Kubus · 01-07-2007, 04:54 AM

the fun just ends in here...
from that point we need to think of everything in advance just like pool players..
the suspension - the biggest problem at the moment
