Will this be a track car? if so go strait for aluminum. The only bad thing about solid aluminum is a lot more road noise. Youu car also use 300zx rear hubs, they are alum so they weigh less and they are 5 lug too. not to mention 2 pistons brakes in the rear

Hell by the time you get the rearend in there and the engine/tranny in. You probably won't even need a driveshaft. lol.

but nice build so far. i want to see more pictures.
the shifter will be within one inch of the stock location. i already measured the firewall to shifter distance. currently it is about 29 inches. the back of the valve cover to the s2k shifter is 30 inches.

So I taking it you just putting the shifter in the stock shifter location and where ever the engine ends up is where it is? Nothing to set the engine back as far as possible for better weight distribution? Isn't the front of the engine going to be sitting pretty close if not hitting the radiator support or sharing the same space as the radiator? More pics Aaron!!!

Why don't you look at the S2K steering setup?

Cause the engine is completely behind the crossmember on the S2K and to do that with the CRX the firewall would need to be "really" massaged.
