    Not sure on the whole set, but the rear portion---lower tiebar with additional support to the subframe is going to be around $225 to $250---you may want to hold off, I think there's a group buy in the works...
    Skidplate installed---

      Switched the rear control arms out as well for the newer tubular versions---a bunch stronger. Had to modify the e-brake brackets...

        Just popped in the Roodwerks (JRALLY) motor mount---took about 6 minutes to install, fit perfectly and raised up the engine a touch which will help this project with ground clearance...Awesome mount!!

          hot damn. now that my AE86 project is 85% complete, I can start looking forward to this.

          Of course, I'm pretty sure that the skidplate braces won't quite work on the 4WD protege...

          Why the mod to the E-brake bracket? Was it just because the tubular trailing arm was wider than the pansified skinny square OEM one, so the cable ended up having to occupy the same space?

          Are there plans to run the brake/fuel lines inside the car?

            Exactly---the cable was pointed at the new arm, nothing's ever easy...The brackets don't look like much, but they took nearly 45 minutes to make and install---another $60 added to the bill...

            I had to shorten up the grant hub---between the hub, euro adapter, quickrelease and momo wheel (with no dish) it pushed the wheel too close to the driver. We took a couple of inches out of it---we can do this mod for anyone that is experiencing the same problem...

              Had a couple lexan rear windows cut---about $130 each at the plastic shop, more than I remember...Masked them and painted them---that part came out great. Laid foam down on the carbon fiber hatch, and then used 3/16" aluminum pop rivets (we pre-drilled all holes before paint) to install. Tryed extra hard to get the spacing even/keep the waviness to a minimum---it was tough---may add more rivets later to help with the waviness or edge molding to hide it---FRUSTRATING!! Saved a ton of weight though!!!

                                Who's got a 4WD in the area that would like to see how close to actually fitting these would be??

                                I know the front subframes hook to the body completely differently, but we might get lucky and have a bolt hole in the right spot. Or close enough to make a small bracket to make it fit.
