I am following the build with interest, I am not sure if you have seen these pics or similar. These pics from Jake Larsen on s14.net show strenghtening to the e30 arms.

All very well to make it nice and light, Nighto, but - not being an expert or anything - aren't you going to need some of those things.

Crikey, didn't know it was him. He's a punter. He came to rally Aus in a Mazda 4WD turbo.
