a punch *i think* was a long time ago. is it a roll pin? the one that looks like a 'c' from the end? if so then that was the one i needed a punch that was just the right size coz i couldn’t get it out to begin with either.

drive goes under passenger side, no body mods needed, need custom lower control arms and cross member, need steering rack to be front-steer and use cordia / gallant hubs turned around backwards... that’s about it.... I think.

i have decided to use a magna rack and cut it down 190mm. i went magna coz its big and heavy, thus it has a very strong rack / balljoints / tierods. most of it is done i just need to make mounts for it and some uni's... 2 weeks i hope and it will be done.. pics then.

10,000rpm eh? please explain? the 2.8L is a bit of a history to me too, nobody really knows it seems, and those that work it out wont tell <_<

radiator from the gallant frontcut, coz the inlet and outlet are both on the driverside. there will be a decent heatshield in the way, so i hope heatsoak from the exhaust wont be a prob. will have to wait and see.
