[TDK Racing]

well not been in the garage much but spent half a day today setting up a subframe with a stering rack in it i tacked a old rack to a subframe so when i move it up in the shell the geometry stays the same well thats my thinking might be wrong any way i have moved the front subframe 130mm up in to the shell i an using a full subrame as i mighe build a tube one latse and even splash out on a zcars one i think with a bolt on frame i can build in a crumple zone if i ever crash it hard i might be able to get away with a subframe rather than a space frame twisted anyway here are some pics i must clean out the workshop sorry fo r the mess

Liking the build mika, good to see there's people using their inginuity and building their own style into their cars, and that your not scared to get involved with the grinder.

Are they calibrated bricks you are using for the floor height. lol

[mika]

well yes bricks are supplyed by nassa lol buggers it was to give a level ride hight to the floor

[mika]

hi mika, thats some project you got goin on, looks prety good mate. i was hoping to start a similar build soon myself and here in ireland a spaceframe mini would be very hard to find. did you consider using a f/g body at all??.... thats the route i was hoping to go but that could easily change . could you possibly put up some reference photo's to show the frame in a bit more detail?? i will be watching with interest.
