Seam weld the engine bay, especially down the chassis legs and suspension turrets.
Need to modify the drivers side chassis leg to allow the alternator to clear.
Conversion kit consisting of mounts, driveshafts, antirollbar spacers, hubs, gearbox spacer, filter.
Uprated suspension (shocks and springs)
16v brakes
gte cv joints
full system exhaust (2 1/4 minimum)

antirollbar spacers
just do anyway witht he antiroll bar. You will need use a different oil filter bracket thing what ever it is called unless you want to run an oil cooler

hubs??!?!?! WTF.

[Philsutton]

oh yeah you dont need to change them, i think it was pvd that suppied those kits. Cant understand why though

If you looked into it you would soon see why they supplied new hubs :roll: :roll: Rick

[Stuart]

so they could take your money and run?

[Philsutton]

cant say i have looked into it really just makes sense to change the cv's instead of the hub??

To run big motorsport spec shafts you have to run big inner and outer CV's thus you need the hubs and or flanges machining to accept them. Rick

what about money wise??

[Ste_Nova]

money wise use gte shafts and cav inners.... and keep a spare set of shafts in stock
