New Build

[rhys007]

Recently been bitten by the 'build your own' bug, found the Chris Gibbs book, & here I am about to embark on an epic journey!!
I've managed to source a few componants & materials except the crucial one- a doner!!
Sierras are hard to come by now, so too escort steering racks & transit links- any alternatives?
I was thinking of an RX7- I think the small engine size etc would work, but will I be able to adapt the chassis?
All the help & advice I can get would be well received.
Thanks

a warm welcome to the forum, & good luck with your build.

donors do come up now & again, just keep your eyes & ears open for them.

the steering racks & drag links etc etc are available very easily at fairly good prices from Rally design,
stick with this forum & you,ll learn where to find most bits needed for your build.

suggest you put your location in your profile as there maybe a builder close to you who could help in some way.

all the best
