Hi Darren,
Thanks for the advice - Sounds like you've performed major surgery to
your 2+2 - Hope it's all working as it should. As for an M3 powered
quantum, now that does sound tempting but I think its a bit out of my
price range! Sounds like a massive undertaking but one which would be
well wort
having made some pretty serious cuts into the body of my 2+2 in the
process of fitting the 4x4 i can only agree with eddie on
caution.during the cutting processi had the whole body mounted on a
surface plate to keep it true!
I went with a seperate backbone chassis for my conversion with the
body at

I believe the MX5 has a complete separate chassis as at this years kit
car show there was a company doing an aerial atom style body conversion
for the MX56 and they pretty much just lifted off the MX5 body and used
the chassis complete.
Will do,
Cheers,
Keith

Hi Steve,
Many thanks for the invite but as the Quantum's not taxed or tested at
the moment, I don't think I'll make it.
I might just contact Steven as you suggest and see what we can
organise - Think I'd better get the car back on the road sharpish!
Cheers,
Keith

Keith,
If you fancy meeting a few members, there is a group of us touring Yorkshire
w/b 17th June, and we would welcome yourself or any other member to join us
for a day out. The details are on the club website, as at my contact
details.
If you would like to meet local members, you could sugge

If it's a suitable size you could maybe use it complete.

Michael,
Owning both fwd and rwd drive Quantums I would definitely prefer all my Qs
to be rwd, as it's a better driving experience. If the H4 was easy to
convert to rwd I would be doing that instead of my current fwd project.
There is something to be said for having the front wheels steer and t

Hi Keith
I think the MX5 rear axel will be very close to fitting on width of
the 2+2
One of the advantages is that the axel from the MX5 is fitted into a
sub frame that will require the floor of the 2+2 to be altered. You
must watch this area VERY carefully as this area has a box section
