Just ordered the BMR red Strut tower brace and the transmission tunnel brace. Well, the STB was on sale at $75 and they threatened to torture a kitten unless I bought the other part...honest.

Only the torque arm to go now and that will be the chassis finished.

Then what?

Well, I'm just gonna order some alloy pedals, an alloy gearknob and some billet CAMARO infills for the back from http://www.mbaproducts.com

Then I might be giving this one to my gf after I get married next October (for the second time - different girl obviously) and looking for a September 2001 or later 6 speed Camaro SS or TA WS6 so I can fit my personal plate on (LV51FER). Mind you, I saw a Z06 on a US website for $32000 which looked very tempting. Then we can both go racing.

MBA Products are top notch. I have their pedals, and the engine plate from Thunder Racing. Now all I need are those highly polished engine caps..

yes it is, but unfortunately, for some of us, it is also the season to pay out the yin yang for repairs... :cry:

Nice Mondeo with a Jag grille, you mean. Or are you Americans still being sucked in by all that British prestige crap. LOL.

Just went to LG and melted my card there , At least I got a few projects when I get back.
Engine oil cooler
tranny oil coole r
rear diff cooler
new rear diff
new suspension
top secret engine build.

Thanks for the compliment!

Means my English still works.... iÃ‚Â´m german

Yes, i know. But the styling is fabulous and it comes as a 2.0 Diesel....
Meaning i have something to put against my gas guzzlers.

AND i can get a loaded 11/03 2.0 D Sport X-Type with 2.500 miles for 29.999,00 Ã¢â€šÂ¬. A similar BMW or Mercedes would be around 40k.

Let me think what was british and was any good . I won't go there. :twisted:

JackZ28 · **Posted:** Tue Dec 09, 2003 1:36 pm

What do you mean by "new suspension"? If you got the LG coilover kit, I want to buy your current Bilstein/H&R setup if you're selling..

SRZ · **Posted:** Tue Dec 09, 2003 2:44 pm

Damn Roy. Top secret engine build. Me knows what ya doin. :wink:

Are we gonna see this thing on the 1/4 this year or what? You got the rear now to do it or can the clutch handle it?

Now I gotta go look on LG and see all these coolers you're talkin bout!

JackZ28 · **Posted:** Tue Dec 09, 2003 2:49 pm

John, I know you probably already have everything, but if not, LG is having a 25% off sale on all suspension/chassis stuff, but only the stuff they make. Unfortunately, that excludes the coilover kit.

Roy · **Posted:** Wed Dec 10, 2003 5:46 am

Garry, Pussh a little harder on the autox , and be the first fbody to go under 8minuts at the ring.

Silas, I might try the 1/4 don't know , Last time It wasn,t pretty . I spun al over the place . besdes It is being built for a fat , fat mid range. power is all gone by 6400 rpms

Jack, That stuff has been well used , still works great though,

So does that mean that you got the coilover kit?

You might recall the Spitfire....and a few other British ideas like the industrial revolution. Now apart from McDonalds, what did the Americans invent? ONLY KIDDING!!!! By the way, it was the Americans that kept buying MG's so you've only got yourselves to blame.

Rampage. Good on you for not being sucked in by all that German crap!!! LOL.

SSZ28 · **Posted:** Wed Dec 10, 2003 6:29 pm

Actually it were the British spys that were over here buying all the MGs! :roll:

You did forget to mention the AC Cobra. The powertrain was American but the rest was British. Does this count?
