@jono Hi. I use the site mainly for info' on my K8 engine (see X2s sportscar posts). However, I've just bought some new MX3 front hubs to use as a 'proof-of-concept' suspension design. I'll probably use these on all 4 wheels as I need to keep the parts count manageable. I've just noticed that the gearbox selector has seized solid, so, will probably need some advice with this too in the near future !
@arandomgadjee if you find anywhere let me know!
I’ve got a pair of RX8 front seats to go in mine that need mounting brackets sorting/welding/fabricating and electrics. Will get around to it one day.
If you are currently working on a project, we would love to see what you are doing. And remember to drop back and keep us upto date as the project goes on. (Please use only one Topic per car)
Finally I have movement on the project 🙌.
I've got everything I need for the big brake kit and ready to be sent to mwb engineering for the brackets to be made.
The list as follows..
Front Hubs have been converted to 5 stud 323f v6 hubs, all refitted with new bearings.
VW Mk5 GTi discs with center bore increased to fit the 323f hubs.
Alfa Romeo MiTo 4 pot brembos ( can't decide what pads to run).
New HEL brake lines ordered to suit the brembos.
Once the brackets are made I need to find a set of 17" wheels that will fit over the brake's 🙄 then I can get a lot of work done this winter, as the car will be off the stands and back in the garage.
Thanks for that information,I am more puzzled as the battery lies beneath the the suspension stiffening strutt and it appears it would need to be removed also the air con pipe is close by and also would need moving
