in preparation for the move i had to get the car rolling. So here she is rolling! using some ghetto over sleeves until I get coilovers, and without the fenders since I had clearance issues with the giant FC tires I have.

There is a motor hiding in there too, but I'm not happy with using the stock FC mounts as it sits way too far back.

I do believe you're going to need some flares with that. You'll probably need a wider rear axle to bring the back tires out to the same track width too.

Before you move the engine, put it on some scales to check your weight balance. The FCs had it so far back to give them a 50/50 weight distribution. I'd bet it probably helps an RX-2 in the same way.
