GTX rear subframe?

yep whole rear subframe and diff,, axles,,, spindles ,droolcalipers

[daniel_cogar]

the rear end is from a 1988 323gtx ..i cant wait to get it and start my build ...sweet pics rocket

[Rocketman]

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.

lol its hard to show detail if I was to color the whole thing dark black with color pencil, so I had to go a little lighter on the body to show the lines.
