MK Indy RX-5 Vtec: Drivetrain Install Pt. 1

[@JoeyWebber955]

One step forward , two steps back . That is how building something different than the rest of the crowd goes . I finally started on the standalone on my 1.8T swapped 914 . Fingers crossed I get it road worthy for the summer .

I'm still in building phase on my Locost, but I went with Momo Racer 320mm(no ring and lotus horn button, almost flush)). Staticky it takes some force to turn the steering wheel. That PPF mount doesn't have to be cut off? I'm using the NC 6 speed. I had to cut off some chunks to make it fit.

[@DriveDriverDriven]

I think a 320mm steering wheel is probably the sweet spot, but I’ll want to fit the cage again to check clearance. The instructions don’t say anything about trimming the PPF mount but it’s extremely tight on the chassis. I trimmed it to be safe and give a little more wiggle room.

@@DriveDriverDriven I believe GBS shows what has to be cut, but that for their chassis.

@@19mati67 I remember having to trim quite a bit for the GBS chassis, but I also put NC engine/trans into a Gen 1 chassis.
