it looks like a cusco one, but from what I remember, the cusco front part won't fit for the US spec FD due to the steering wheel being left hand drive.

Is the owner of the car on this forum? I would really like to know. I found this car on the streetracing.org website on a SEMA picture page. The car is a bright orange 3rd gen

That's the SP Engineering car. http://www.sp-power.com/media_turbomag_0901.htm It looks like a Cusco cage to me. Maybe they modified it.

Question What the?????

Ok, now thats really weird, the engine is in backwards?? They trying to be different or is there some purpose to doing that?? Hell, I just want to know how they did it!!

Backward??

Forwards??

Forward??

What in the heck?? Someone must have slipped me something, must be seeing things.

Sorry to take this off track, just something that I noticed. Someone probably touched up the pic by accident they reversed it, ABS is still next to the turbos. (whew, for a minute there, thought that I was going sane!!).

I believe thats the car built by SP engineering. It was featured in Sport Compact Car a while back. In the magazine article it stated that it was a Cusco cage, installed and the turn column stalk was modified to fit with it. I'm looking for more information on roll cages/bars my self. I think the R.E. Amemiya roll bar looks the best so far.

and yes that pick is just reversed, it was published like that in the magazine.
