Steveh1's build

[garyt]

it really is the whole mounting setup , the arms and the nose. they all need to be hard mounted , so yes what you have there will work for the nose and then you need to sort the arm mounts.....

[SteveH1]

Yea i intend to get inserts made to hard mount it at some point but that money is better spent at this stage
cheers

Mines all poly bush mounted. But what you have done looks solid enough !

I think the sleep depravation from the baby is starting to catch up with me.
But it gave me a good laugh.

Isn't it meant to be behind the tunnel cross tube (further to the rear)?
Also get it as low as you can. I would like mine to be about 10mm lower (Sierra, book spec)

Ps it's been a long time since I looked at the book.

[SteveH1]

Yea it looks like it is in the saturn plans but it seems quiet far back rom what i can see plus you have to cut the cable then so does this cause problrms for the iva

[SeriesLandy]

You will have to cut the cable anyway. In its position on the plans it makes a nice arm rest as I have my seat all the way back

heres my mx5 handbrake. i cut the cable bracket from the donor and welded that in the same place as the book bracket, then fitted the cables which gave me the handle position, works a treat and means its all standard, the saturn plans show a homemade cable for the last bit which i just dont like
