e bay purchase
 

no the seller was Reading based
what caught my eye was the MX5 dodr option as I believe it has more character than traditional Sierra choices, and also the less availability of Sierra parts currently which will only get worse I guess
I am trying to go the route of clam shell wings as a preferance and wondered why most go cycle wings,hopefully this is personal choice rather than influenced by IVA approval!
cheers

Only prob is when you've built it you'll need to get a perm :p

I hope i never bump into Skov at any point! :)

Clam shell wings are very "old skool" and cycle wings are more modern really but its personal choice .At the end of the day its your car do what you want V6,V8,turbo,nitrous,jet engine, whatever takes your fancy really :D

Clamshell wings give an early, iconic look but are not regarded as very aerodynamic. Caterham started to fit them (mid 60's KAR120c etc ) but then changed back to cycle wings and stayed with them.
I may get a pair of clamshells sometime if some come up at the right price but would need to mount them so the car could be easilly swapped back for long trips etc

Clam shells have a lot of lift at high speeds!

oi!




Thinking about fitting a blower to mine post-IVA, not sure which one to go for though, this:



or this:



:D

Kiwi MX5
 

This is the way I will be going.I have the steel and a MX5 donor. Once I tidy up my work area and make a build table I'll be into it!! It is great to have a MX5 area.Sierras are Dodos here in New Zealand.

Stupid question
 

What size and grade bolts have people used to hang the diff

Need to know before going and ordering my nut and bolt set

Using the saturn plans and want to get the diff mocked up this week

Can I ask how you are planning to mount the diff?

I will pop some photos up of my modified mount in the next few days

I have made sure it won't budge
