Well it's not something that anyone can do from scratch. I am really busy currently working on the car. I am hoping to come up with a write-up and even sell a kit that makes this swap easier. Especially the steering column. That one is a masterpiece

Rack and pinion with second gen suspension and crossmember. How difficult was it? And got any details on swapping the steering column in?

No those are some 5bolt wheel I had handy. I am borrowing a friend's 16x10 wheels to see how it fits and find the final backspacing and order them wheels

Sweet Omid, bring that ride out to the A-X when you've got the chance 
And thanks for saying something, getting reamed by the "locals" for your nice car was kinda bad

As stated, "the car is that color, but the airdam/widebody items are photoshopped.
Maybe when he's done with it there will be a better pic"
Looks like there are better pics already ::waves hi to Omid:: Got the email - thanks.

Yes there will be coilovers on the car. But since there is no engine in there and those springs been sitting out of the car for so long. the car sits high.

What is the benefit of the 2nd gen A arms over our control arms?? I am new to the raicng stuff, I like to cruise and the control arms seem fine.

Well for one the 2nd gen control arm is aluminum which weighs less and it's better for unsprong weight. Also at the bottom it has a wider track which let's me run wider wheels with not too heavy offset. And of course there is the rack and pinion and also the brakes. Plus there are a lot of choices available for 2nd gen suspension.
One more thing that I have found out is that the motor sits about 1/2 to an inch lower now.

Are those brackets holding your seats bolted to the floor? I ask because I just got some new sparco seats and I'm trying to figure out how to mount them. I want them to be able to slide though. Also what wheels and size are you planning to use?
