Default DC5 parts for EM2

Hi all,

Recently one of my mates crashed his DC5 (spun out in the wet), car is a write off and the driver is fine. Front end damage, 4 broken wheels, steering system, front suspension have all been destroyed

I was wondering what parts I could rip off his car and put onto mine (EM2)

Thanks!

See if the front sub-frame is undamaged. If it is clean, just unbolt it from the unibody and the McPherson's, and just take it along with the engine/drivetrain. You'll need Hasport/Hybrid Racing mounts to mount the engine to your car's frame-rails, but it'd still be worth it. I would also snag the rear 5-lug setup, from the trailing arm to the lower control arm. That way, you can keep the 5-lug setup on all four wheels. Oh, and since you're upgrading the brake setup, snag the brake master cylinder, so you have enough pressure to power the bigger calipers.

Four shocks wow that will fit but you need the tie rod end as well it will give your EM2 a good stance, Sterring wheels, sway bars, the recaro seats, shift ****.

EDIT: Agree with matt if you go for the K get the 5lug conversion, your EM2 need an enough power braking for that engine.

The floor mats will fit, the steering wheel will, and the shift boot might as well. The dash, however, I'm not so sure about.
