3 minute(s) of a 221 minute read

had some fun today! put in a solex lock onto the trunk. attempted to make a CF hatch trim piece that was cracked and busted, and mounted up one of the CF doors, and threw the seat inside to see what she will look like

here is the lock

Making the CF hatch cover.

I had glassed it last night

started to get off the access bits

drilled out the holes

Some cool shots of Project ae86

I appreciate everyone input.

I don't want to do anything crazy with the motor. I want something simple, stock, that has already been done, so I can just purchase or replicate motor mounts, has at least 200 Rear wheel Horse Power, and is not going to throw off the weight balance too much.

13b does not have enough torq, nor HP, but a 13bt maybe.... I just had bad luck with rotory motors in the past.

That R35 skyline motor would be insane!!! I wish I had the cash for something like that!

2jz is also a sweet motor but very expensive... not sure I am willing to shell that much out.

the is300 beams is good, but just underpowered.... so its hard to justify spending more money on a beams, for less power then a sr20.


But I need to sell some mr2 parts off before I can afford a new motor. I did do a price chart for how much I have spent so far and gosh darn I am happy!

AE- 700ish
rx7 brakes and adapter calipers 200
CF doors 350
recaro seats 300
new tails 120
solex locks 80
leds 25
HIDS free
Total thus far $1,875!
