Looks great. Nice build. Got a 93 FD and ditching the rotary. Just want some nice reliable turn key power. No headaches. Searching for a motor right now.

Got my cage today. Its a S&W Racecars cage for rx7 and is made of chromoly. I was really amazed with how light it really is. Cage is pre notched and comes with everything needed to install. Its a 8 point cage

Either you can pick up shit REAL FAST, or you are B.S'ing us and have been a Master welder for years.

Those nickles on that Alum looks great! From my understanding, it is not easy to weld Alum. Props to you Bro!!!

Do the bars for the rollcage go thru the dash? I would like to see pics of it.

I would be interested in a turbo kit as well.

Honestly I am nothing more than a college student that likes to build things. I've been welding for a few years but Al was a bit tricky to learn.
