A lot of progress in a short amount of time! You will want to add a second fan to the back side of that rad. One fan wont be enough to keep it cool.

we had to make shims for this to work .this kit is not hard to do if you have the right tool BUT there are some things you need to know when you get this kit there is more to it than they tell you https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...c5963f837c.jpg this is what they tell you to do when you set it you . https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...c20763df38.jpg this is part of the set up before you can weld any thing |
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...9578c8319c.jpg

This is a Ronin Kit .It is a nice kit but there is a lack of info on what to look out for when you do the install apart from that it is on point .the new problem i have is i moved the rack down and now the track control arm look odd as hell
|
Which rack did you move? The steering rack? Gotta be careful messing with suspension geometry....
|
+1
While the pace of progress is great, there is a huge difference between a swapped car that works, and a swapped car that works well. Make sure to get the geometry on any racks you are moving. |
Sorry the steering rack we had to move it down so that the engine would fit under the stock hood .I am about to have a part made to fix this problem from a rock crawler buggy
