the fronts are not identical in length just style and hardware. The rear arm will be sandrail huge and the upper mount you see is for the steer link mount. ya I'm still going to use the exploder diff I can get gears for under 100 and a custom lsd carbon clutch plate diff for under 300. To be honest a r200 off a skyline on ebay for 300 would be a better bet or supra but keeping it in the family is cool to haha. its not dead i have made some stuff that i haven't posted.

right who knows whats gonna happen i love the car if you sit in one and drove it you
get a vibe of controle not from the car your up high you have little overhang and you have a really tall roof for giants. There are over 2 million focus running around i see the shells for 400 bucks and what not. I think the idea of the car now would be buy and car tear it down to nothing do a motor with a stand alone and do a hotrod wiring harness fuck everything in the car and weld a tunnel and weld two towers in and cut the wheel well out and fuel cell. I would love to just sell the rolling chassis im not a wire guy a fuel guy or a motor guy i would love to just build and sell a bare rolling shell with a full set of spares.

Have wallet will work?
over the years i havent put one on a road yet but my ideas have gotten better simpler and easyer to make i mad that rear frame in 5 hrs. i have proven all the other parts im making already in what i have built for subaru arms and other cars i just need some one willing to pay for a car the budget of 3000 dosint cut it like alot of the people i have talked too that really like the idea on facebook its not a cheep idea but with a good amount of cash the speck of the car should be quite abit higher than the R2 fiesta i would say it would take about 20k and tons of hand work to get that spec but hell people pay that for the subie they start with!
