Don't typically like these cars but I do like where you are going with it... 18x13.5

Ah those are just for show, will have narrower Meisters for the rear for the track...

And lulz for crap weather in ireland.

Good old Ireland LoL

RX8 + SR20

Great work so far!

[chik-n-little]

This is more than a great start, I love the way your build is heading. Never scene a sr-20 swap in one of these. Should be dope

[Chigga]

You are what we called a do-er, and a great one at that.

[trystanz]

This is so cool, I cant wait to see what kinda numbers the 8 puts down with the sr20

[Minuki]

This is going to be incredible.

[Specv118]

*watching*

[brownishwater]

It always amazes me what you British and European people are able to do in such small spaces. Since I am a bitch, this type of build would require a massive garage, air compressors everywhere, lifts, etc.

Not even considering the lack of space you have to work with, brilliant work so far. Sub'd for badassery.

[electricalbox]

Great work, when I saw the 13.5" rears with a 315 I fell in love so much more!

[Kruizer]

RX8 + SR20

Great work so far!

Thanks very much...

There are a few done alright, nice vid of youtube of one fella...

Wait till you see my KP61 finished I'm building two cars atm...

This is so cool, I cant wait to see what kinda numbers the 8 puts down with the sr20

Same spec build as mine is making 425bhp at the fly in a ps13, I'd be hoping for around 400bhp...

This is going to be incredible.

Wouldn't go that far, should be cool alright...

*watching*

Waiting LoL

Irish and Proud dude I'm a typical fella, I like a tight fit...

Great work, when I saw the 13.5" rears with a 315 I fell in love so much more!

And thats even stretched The 335's were too dear and I won't even talk about the 365's...

So just a small update, I was onto Brian in Driftkits.eu and looking for a vent to build into my own bonnet, so he cut up an S15 skin he had in stock, legend ! Looking forward to fitting it once it arrives



And the next pic is probably my favourite of the thread to date, I got a set of Bride Fixed back seats in red and head protection, saw them in Ffrenchie’s ages ago but a mate of mine bought them, they came up for sale so I bit the bullet and doubled my budget on seats, should look awesome in the car…

[Kruizer]

Finished removing all the glue with petrol left over from the sound deadening, took off the heat cover under the bonnet, lined up the vent and have it ready for cutting tomorrow

Weird looking bonnet...


Everything outside the masking tape is now waste, will have to fit the vents seperately to avoid the standard dip in the original bonnet...
