Oh, damn! Thanks for the heads up!The alternator on the back not such a good idea if you have problems i think it also means you need to cut out more of the subframe. I am in the process of doing the conversion myself and have made up my subfame using the metro k Series one.
Should be interesting to see the metro frame used, doesn't that widen the track?
Yeah, much easier solution, got a couple of looms too so will be handy for fault finding! Even got a load of the honda bits like driveshafts, which will be sold to make some cash back on the project!£700 is good mate, especially for a JDM one, I bought mine in bits and bobs, soooooo much cheaper and easier having it all there like yours
Unfortunately Jamie you need to move that alternator, as mentioned above it don't fit there in the allspeed frame, infact most frames can't house it there anyway, you'll see when you drop the engine in.......
Allspeed has it mounted on the front just under the air con stuff but you need a clubby front or extended nose like yours, I think I've still got my old allspeed alternator bracket here somewhere as I'm trying standard length nose now, so if you haven't bought one yet I'll have a look for it
Again, thanks for the heads up on the alternator issue - AC and power steering are coming off and going to the scrappies/forums! Would be easier to have the alt on the front anyway incase of issues!
That would be great if you could, I'm trying to get the engine ready before even getting hold of a frame, so if I find one second hand, I don't have a clue what will be with it and what wont!
Thanks buddy!Great project,looking good!!
Great looking project so far!
What MG are those seats out of?
Thanks! Err, ZR I think!
