Nice! That thing should rip pretty good if it can ever get traction.

it will be worse than the talon. One of the mirage guys just weight his with a 4g63 in it and it was 2055lbs

as for today. I took the 90 awd parts tranny the rest away apart and just used the tranny case to make it easy and light. I got them motor in the car with the tranny case for mock up for the front and rear roll stop mounts for the 1g tranny. 2g tranny is a bolt in the car.
I had to cut up the roll stop brace and mod the hell out of it to clear the awd tranny. Also put the evo III knuckles with 1g dsm hubs on the car. It will be rolling on my 98 spyder rims.

The front roll stop is moved over alittle bit to mate up the the 1g tranny. the front and rear mounts are awd. the front ard rear roll stops are mirage 1.8 auto.
