no. not yet. I will try to post some pictures next week. I also have to upgrade my clutch. I was running 6 psi originally but as soon as a changed to 10 psi I noticed the clutch can not handle that much power.

Collecting parts... the expensive stuff is out of the way at least! plan on doing the conversion early next spring.

bigballsofpaint has already begun gathering parts and instant messaging me with questions so I guess he should be on the In Progress list.

edit - props should go out to JB and Gatecrasher for starting the mad rush to FWD TT. Look at all these conversions and how much money is being pumped into our economy doing them

thanks punkasscrab, i was feeling left out for a moment......all i need now is the gaskets and SAFC.......damn dealer prices on gasket.......fing outrageous.......and oh the the fuel pump bracket someone said i would need, might have been u punkasscrab....oh well so 3 more things to get then......

ya i also upgraded to a 3SX SPEC stage 3 clutch.......BIG improvement even on a stock car so i guess i dont have to worry about that problem......now i just need to bitch at mitsu to rebuild my tranny while i still have a waruntee i love screwed up reverse gears.....this will get me out of a jam.

Major props to Gatecrasher. He's a great guy to talk to. After meeting him and listening to him talk about his car, he completely changed my mind on some parts of the swap, and re-affirmed me in other ways. He's truly a great guy a really knows these cars.

I don't have to worry about clutch & flywheel failure. Already got the TZ/UR flywheel combo in the car.

Here's a question for those that are doing this/ have already done this:

What are you doing for suspension? Stock is alright, but will not give the car it's best launching ability. I'm going to work the JIC's into my car, with some softer spring rates than what they come with (12/8 rather than 14/9 front/rear respectively).

Ive got Ground Controls right now but by the time I get the conversion done, I hope to have JICs installed. After that will be be and LSD.
