My sump sits 50mm below the chassis so I thought it would hinder this even more. I'm using a mk1 inlet which might make a difference.

do you have the tube dimensions for these wishbones
as im looking at the saturn plans but dont see them i see the dims for the jigs but thats it regards steve Quote:

The rear lower arms I made 20mm longer than suggested by the plans as many were reporting their adjusters were wound out a long way to achieve correct geometry. I would probable revise this to only 10mm longer if I were making them again.
Rear upper arms. |
They're in. They clear everything but I might have to trim back/remove the inlet support bracket lug from one of the inlet runners. I wonder how much the engine mounts will allow the engine to move as well. Either way the front end looks a lot more stout. I might still put a cross brace in the front frame too. Can anyone tell me what flexi hoses they used and where they put the chassis lugs for them please? |
Hi Gavin good to see another mx5 build!! The strut brace you have put in on the drivers side I was told on this forum it's not needed as the mx5 uses a collapsible steering colum!?!? I would just check your height for the body work! Nice to see someone else making everything takes longer but it's defiantly bespoke good work fella keep it up!

Thanks, I didn't think the collapsible column had much to do with ommiting the brace? I beleived it was due to clashing with the inlet manifold cast brace that extends down the block. I'm leaving that out of my build so I can fit the extra chassis tube which should reduce chassis flex.

Can anyone advise on what offset 13 wheels one would fit to our cars?
I'm looking at 13x7 front and 13x8 minilites but I can't find any definite offsets used for such a wheel. |
