sump mod?

Post by Busdriver »

I know I have seen a thread on here before or I'm imaging things again....

I'm looking for some images of sr20 and ca 18 sumps modded to suit a gemini

I just want to check some thing before I start cutting mine...

if you do your mounts right the sump doesn't need to be modified....

here you go,

first pic shows the gemini mount point and the new ca18 point. so easy!
using stock ca mounts and stock sump. the sway bar needs to be moved down slightly for clearance, I did this with some aluminum spacers.

hey did you modify where the mounts are mounted in the gemini or just bolt on a custom mount?? sorry if it sounds strange i just can't see much from the pics :( also how much clearance do you have under you bonnet without modifying the sump?, did you drop the rack at all?

Wouldn't that be a bit of an extream change for your bump steer?. Id suggest modding the sump before the rack .
