what's peoples thoughts of a watts link thats a inch to close to the passengers side[xo]  It has been centered on the back plate but not the axle width. I think its coming off and new back plate getting made

Hi, if you have a sneek peek under a Maz RX7 s1/2/3 they have the Watts link on top and forward of the axle tube on 1 side of the diff so if ur's is not exactly centre it wont be any problem. The arc on the short bar will pull the axle over by mm's, nothing to worry about

So now I have decided to part with the RS its back into this( until something else pops up). I have had 2 different intercooler setups and haven't been happy with either. I got a $50 cooler of ebay chopped it up to suit my car The left overs  It lined up with rad trying to work out how to mount it  Still finding remanents of the sandblasting at least 5yrs on.   Now I have cut the front panel Im a bit concerend about how much strength is left in it and whether I may need to brace the swaybar mounts. Any thoughts? It all taped in and I realised just how much bog is in my front panel I counted at least 3 layers, gotta love apprentices[B)]   The next lot to get put in soon

As Im waiting on bits I thought I would have go at a loom. I have avoided electrics as much as I can so yet another learning curve. Has anyone one got any recommendations for electrical supplies. I need kill switches,connectors,etc All this is needed in the car.  Plan is to mount fuses and switches on a panel in the dash. Can someone tell me what is needed off the back of the alternator and starter please.

It's coming along nicely. Should be alot of fun when it's finished. Can't help you with the electrics though. It's one of my pet hates/fears!
