almost hav the engine out of the s2000. is alot harder then it looks. ive spent like 7 hours trying already and finnaly hav it to the point where its floating in the breeze. but can't pull it out the top cause it hits on the reo bar and can't drop it out the bottom with completly removing the sub frame. but since i don't want to grind anything off so i can still sell the shell ill hav to drop the subframe down and bolt it back up so it can roll agen

sorry havnt updated much, didnt get to work on it for like over a month but last couple weekend ive made some progress. i wont post up all the pics cause that will take ages, but i fitted the motor while lowereing the crossmember 2 inces so i didnt hav to cut outthing out besides the crossmemebr itself. but i didnt like lowering it that much so i cut the tunnel out and now its only lowered 1 inch and the bonnet just clears by about 5 or so millimeters.

 

so i had to cut the crossmember up to clear the sump, cut out way to much so will do another one later down the track

Kind of. Still need to bog, prime and paint the bay. Paint cross members, control arms, sway bars and all that. Rebuild steering rack, find coilovers for the front. Final fitment of motor. Wire it all up. Refit interior. Put stronger diff in it. Make tails haft to suit. Exhaust too. Is all a matter of monis
