            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

            • should be an easier route than what I am taking with the Miata stuff. it seemed easier in theory, but in practice its more of a hassle.

                  The GTX rear end was relatively easy for me to mount into my car. It's much bigger than the Capri subframe, but fit in the same manner.





                  ^^This was all I *had* to cut out to fit it, I cut out more to make room for exhaust, reinforcement bars, and fuel cell. Daniel, check out Kevin's AWD Tracer build for tips on locating the GTX rearend. I did mine completely off-car using tips from him and my alignment is perfect.
