Well apparently I was a bit blunt in my previous post, sorry to you and Gman
congrats on the swap and awd. I was under the impression the entire
205 rear was going to be used. I hope it works out for you.

JDM guy made me do it.

hes got aftermarket coilovers installed so im assuming he has it lowered quite a bit.. hence the little clearance under the car.

94' ST Coupe - 5sfe Motor swap and brake swap.
coilovers and reasonable lowering amount = \ _____ / look to control arms and axles...which is ok.
massive amounts of ground clearances is over rated...... if you can fit a key fob laying flat under your car thumbsup.gif.... being able to clear a 2x4 thumbsdown.gif

Wow whos car is that in the vid?

Sorry, no animated sigs allowed.
maybe its just the angle of the picture, but where are you going to route your exhause piping??? it looks like the axles block the biggest path to the back and the car is too low to go under the rear end??
That Car is My Boys Pipes DREAM COME TRUE!!! Im DaGuyDatDidIt...his car's driving and functioning, need a lil' touch up here and there then off to rest for the winter, so DROP YOUR B.S. flags, set'em on fire and i'll piss on'em!

No not at all it pulls hard...and goes straight
seems as if you have no exhaust at all??

I'd get atleast a few feet of piping and a high flow cat to clean up the sound a bit.
Hopefully that wont make you lose the tone/idle sound you have

BTW this thread is quite informal for me..... Now if you'd give some more info of how you did it and what you'd do different if you could do it again?
