At this point id just use the wisefab mount for the bmw hydraulic steering rack and then just figure out what tie rods you need to use for the stock knuckles since the car wont actually have the full wisefab knuckles. Theres a guy here in America thats gone this route with the bmw hydraulic rack and oem knuckles and it turned out pretty good.
@@WZ_TV It would be interesting to see. Always loved the RX8 style but don't want a rotary. LS and some other swaps you need to put the battery elsewhere. Trying to find an engine where you can keep the battery under the hood.
So the other problem at least with the cd009 transmission is that if i go higher with the engine, the transmission hits the tunel. If you go even higher then the engine will be tilted back.
I dream of having the knowledge to do this one day. Great job! I hope it works as supposed to
Thank you sir!
You know what your doing!
There is a suggestion ! Put spacers between subframe and main frame bolts , it'll lower te subframe over 2, 3 cm
Can’t wait to see more gonna be a beast
We're going for power on this one!!! ;)

I’ll look into it. Thanks!
Did you bolt the transmission mount to existing mounting points? And how about the diff? How is it supported?
Nice work love the content

Thanks man. Appreciate it!
That Looks great!
Do you have a link on the motor mounts you used ?
Lets go!
In the process of doing my swap too
Any way of contacting you ? I want to do the same with the mounts I’m also running a cd009
hi there would you make a set of the engine mounts to sell and also what gearbox did you use please many thanks tommy
Transmission is a cd009 from a 350z. The mounts were build in place so I cant really duplicate them.
The engine and transmission mounts are available for sale I am starting a similar project for my 2009 mazda rx8.
Were can I get them from
where can i get all the swap $$
Did you have to mount the battery in the trunk, or was there room under the hood?
Im not at that stage yet. We’ll see

Could u not just change the bonnet so it can fit without pushing steering rack down?
