im keen on carbon t-tops too.

dont want to go into this too much on this thread , but should be able to do easily had , sw targa top for a short while should have done them then . will have a look at them next time see an SW and see whats involved? panel is simple as just working out mountings might take a bit more. will see if i can borrow them back from guy i sold it too. pm me or i will start other thread on this, not here.

hey if your getting new driveshafts is there anything wrong with your existing ones? If not id be itnerested in taking them off your hands :P (and turbo hubs if you have them as well :P)

basically those upgrades weren't made very well.

Yep, they are the ones kam. Thanks for the information on the shafts as the more information the better. I will then stick with the CRW upgrade.

Thanks

wow just been having a proper read through your build thread from the start. there has been so much work go into this. shame i missed seeing you at time attack. sure i will see it around soon though. makes my plans look very small but gotta start somewhere i suppose? hope to get some pointers with my build sometime and can do some carbon work for you when /if you need any done. a bonnet skin would be quite easy to do. have a dash mould for a commodore that could be modded for the SW too will check sizes.

I know I did get a litte carried away but had the opportunity to tick plenty of boxes before it hit the track as well as add a few boxes as its track only.
It didnt take all that long to complete and would have taken a lot less if I had a decent workshop and prior knowledge and proceedures in race car build ups. One thing for sure is the amount of information/knowledge I have learnt on the way. I would like to do another bigger and better but will finish this one first.
I would have liked to use CF but there are budget constraints was well as time in understanding and perfecting the processes but Im happy to talk with you about some future projects for the car.

cheers

thats ok, that picture is a photo of the rear suspension of an MR2, and the owner has modified the top mount to add camber adjustment.
which is very very exciting, because currently the only ways to get rear camber adjustment are..

crash/eccentric bolts ...which are crap
toda DA and up coilover kits come with rear camber adjustment on the upper mount.
old tein HT tarmac coilovers had rear adjustable upper mounts too..

or making your own..
which is what i have a photo of above..

The adjustable camber in the pic is a welded plate. The same as the drawing I showed you. It is a must for any MR2.

Im not getting new shafts but just discussing options on what is available. I will be buying the cages, then fitting to my existing axles.
GT4 Celica has the same set up as the MR2. You may have more luck there.

cheers
