my ef6

[crazy eyes]

i bought this back in sept 09. some of u might remember it from herehttp://www.cr-x.org/crxorg/forum/top...?TOPIC_ID=1037

heres a few pics of it when i got it







it didnt really do much for the first year or so of me owning it other than sit in my garden. heres a pic of back in march after a much deserved wash




i decided that it was a waste leaving it there and i was debating on selling it so i could put a bit more money into my ek but i decided to keep it a do a few bits to her.

i picked up this around christmass



its alot better than the original but i'm still not happy with it. i'm hoping to get a nardi classic wheel eventually.


i was thinking of doing a turbo on the d16zc in the car but i came across a jap b16 with a blown headgasket at a good price so i decided to pick up that instead




then i was over in kilcock scrap yard and they had a da6 there so i picked up another few bits






theres two da6 front hubs and drive shaft in there and a ys1 gearbox that i got not long after i bought the car. i also managed to get the front lip and gear linkages off the da6 in the scrappy.

i'm still picking up bits at the moment before the conversion. i need a rear set of 96 itr/mb6 rear trailing arms and front spindles as i'm gonna do a 4x114 conversion. i've a decent set of 96 itr alloys that i'll probably put on or i might steal the te37's off my ek but i'm still undecided at the moment.


oh and it passed the nct yesterday so happy days. i'll get a few more pics up as i go along and any suggestions or comments are welcome.


thanks for reading

sorry to be a buzz-killin-ton but the da6 front hubs won't do. they'll bolt up but front geometry won't be right. they're a different shape to the ef arms

I thought DA would fit Steve?

You will have a problem with the 114.3 conversion though due to what steve has said above..


Had wondered where Andys old car had gone alright though!!

will it be possable to use the original spindel arm and just convert everything onto it
