    A friend of mine has just gone from a JRE-built XE to a Millington Diamond in his Puma rally car, and to say he's pleased with the Millington engine would be a huge understatement.

    Exactly where my thought process went with my car with using vauxhall stuff and why I ended up nissan gear in the end.

    Make sure you take loads of measurements off the cav, especially in relation to where things mount up and there pick up points etc. If I was starting again I'd probably look to make a "negative jig thingy" like they did on Project Binky.

    I'll defs be using the diff etc but I might even make up the axle and wishbones etc in alloy at work to make it all lightweight and the bodyshop has a jig to out the car on already so it's all good
