congratulations on an excellent build. your motor choice would be mine as well if i wasn't happy w my rotary.

have you plotted bump steer yet? you really want no bump steer at all.

I have not plotted the bumpsteer. At some point I will buy/borrow a gauge to check it. For now I loaded/unloaded the front suspension and checked it that way. Its not the right way to do it but its good enough for now. It drives nice and I don't feel any bumpsteer. My next project is to address the rear bushings. The stock ones have seen better days and its starting to annoy me when I hit a bump. I ordered the whiteline diff bushings and have already changed to trailing arm bushings. I am not trying to decide what route to go for the control arms and toe links.

Thats a nasty little set up you got. What front diff mounts are u using for the cobra swap, and where did u get them from.

Im on the stock rx7 trans and rear.

Changed the headlights, bumper lights, and cleaned her up.

Hey, what pilot bearing did you use on your flywheel?

I had a stock type needle pilot bearing machine in my aluminum flywheel and started rethinking it since that bearing has a seal on a normal RX7. I assume you keep some grease in it or at least keep out dirt.

I used the stock RX7 bearing and just left a bunch of grease in it.

Nice build man, I think this maybe the swap I do. After reading this entire thread, im liking what I see. I going to start slowly gathering parts as I have 3 other projects to finish up.

Nice swap! Ideal swap!

Vids ?

Super nice and well thought out build!
