timj Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Hi, Is it possible that you can write down what parts from what car you used to conger the steering. And also maybe an how to.... I have the same car and really want RP steering on it... Really nice work, loving it!! Keep up the nice work:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra2 Posted November 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Cheers snot. I think its worked out pretty good. The res is the same height as standard but slightly back and more centred in the car. It also keeps the brake fluid away from the exhaust which is on the drivers side with this new 2rz motor. Timj. All the steering is from a ra60 celica. I also have a 60mm spacer under the steering wheel. Ive had the fluid feed hoses made in rubber so they can be clamped off to allow brake repairs.

snot35 Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Another day another update, I wish I progressed like this! I've been wanting to do similar in my car for a while and probably push the seat rear ward on custom mounts, what have you used there, RHS and angle plate welded to some plates where it meets the sills and trans tunnel?

supra2 Posted November 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Ive used 40x40x3mm angle for the mounts. There is 75x75x3mm plate on the trans tunnel but none on the inner sill as ive linked that side to the roll cage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snot35 Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Excellent, thank you! At the moment I have 5mm plate welded to the old seat mounts. It's not going to move, but a tad heavy :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra2 Posted November 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 I remember one transport "engineer" telling me any mods had to be in 6mm plate. I did ask, but he could'nt tell me why a piece of 6mm welded to some 1mm sheet metal body work would be less likely rip out than a piece of 3mm. Seats are in for the moment.

snot35 Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 It makes sense, I suspect my seat will fail before the plate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, first round of the rallymaster 2014 is the plan with hopefully a shake down event before then to iron out any bugs. Front guards ready for fibreglass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
