The Nissan rear plus the 6 speed tremec sounds like a good combo, you probably wont need first gear starts too often.

The CR weighs in at just under 1100kg and with a std Gen 111 goes pretty well.I think a lot more work needs to be done on the suspension set up. Tubular arms with optimised mounting points would be good at the rear as there must be 60 kgs of excess metal in the std Ford suspension and a fair bit of toe change over bumps.

What does a Harrison weigh in at. I suspect they are under a 1000kg with a Lexus or Gen 111.

Paul, I think your onto a good thing with the Harrison/Gen111 combo and from all accounts Warwick seems like a good guy and thats gotta count as a plus.

Now if you have a Nissan rear end why not go the whole hog and put a Nissan front in complete with the wonderful Turbo six and AWD. A Cobra weighing under 1000kg with AWD would be awesome.Maybe next time after the lotto win
