You would just run the NC subframe with the NC rack and it would look Stock.

Nice build, too bad its getting sold off!

Just started my own MZR swap using all NC stuff

I love the build as well as you priority list for the car. Understandable how life can get in the way of the fun that is building and racing cars. I have purchased a white RX8 recently to pair up with the Velocity Red Mica Pearl my wife and I purchased 2 years ago.

This car has a blown engine and I am in the planning faze currently with the it. The transmission is almost new with only 10k miles and that will be getting placed into the red car because it has a blown 4th gear synchro. Majority of the parts left on the car will be getting pulled off and sold then I will begin the same arduous journey you found yourself on. No clue as to when it will be completed, however the F20/22C engine is on my list of viable swaps. Same as the 13B-REW and SR20DET.

Goal is to keep the overall balance of the car, yet be far faster than my Honda Challenge H2 99 Civic Si. Thanks for the thread!
