You might want to check there is room for the master cyliders, to fit a crossflow on sidedrafts in we are having to look at a pedal box with reverse cylinders (ie inside the car).

Might sell the box....and do a rx8 conversion
Everything I read says the type 9 is at its limits with this engine
What’s a v6 type 9 worth?

Got a modified escort crossmember so I can use a rack and pinion steering 👍 Also some Land Rover engine mounts The engine won’t fit from the top....... So Idea is to fit engine to crossmember, then lift from of car over the engine, then lift engine up into position   |

Sold the type 9 for £300 Picked this up today, rx8 5 speed for £100  Got this in post today too, rx8 adaptor plate £130  The way I see it, I’ve now got a stronger gearbox and £70 in my pocket 👍👌 Went with the 5 speed, after talking to a rx8 forum, it was recommended that this was the way to go |
