i got a question, i have my drag car that i bought with the one piece front end on it along time ago, does anyone know if i can buy the piece thats been cut off and have it rewelded on so i could make it back into a street car? here is a pic

 

sounds like an awful lot of work, why not just buy another ef? probably end up costing you about the same

 

you can them from honda

 

Its not that much work, its one piece<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by cua0 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">sounds like an awful lot of work, why not just buy another ef? probably end up costing you about the same </TD></TR></TABLE>

 

The EF core support is like sheetmetal compaired to 92+. The front x-member is used to create most of the support, and the front x-member is basicly spot-welded on. Go to a junkyard with a sawzall & 2-3 batteries, ask nicely, and trailer your new front clip away.

yah thats what i figured, i want to put a normal front end on it cause i wanna turn it into a lil road race machine, so what i need is called the front x member?

oh nice, thanks alot bro

 

looking at that pic, you need quite a bit more than just the core support. it appears part of the aprons have also been cut off. its doable, but a bit of work

ahah no prob man, yes it is mounted according to rules, has passed many times

 

it technically is ILLEGAL. its supposed to have a steel bar around it to protect it from impact, as the fiberglass will protect it very little. although, i had mine just like that but on the drivers side for a few years and never failed tech. Now that i have learned it needs a bar, i have added one

 

pics?

 

the rules state it must be within the confines of the METAL body. so our interpretation is that just behind the fiberglass is not correct. after speaking to a few ppl on here, i was told that it should be encased in metal surround, like a cage bar. so i used some extra cage material and fabricated a bar around it

 

This ought to help...
