All last readings made me change some of the bits...
Main components:
. RT
. R1 02 /03, probably from US (way cheaper than UK or PT), with rad and fan
. No reverse (electric in the future)
. Open diff (3.62 or 3.38), push in shafts drum hub carriers, adaptor plate to discs, standard discs
. FRONT still not knowing what to do... maybe wait for rotry alloy hubs...
. DD2 Lite
. Quick rack
. MNR exhaust (w/ R1 performance can), pedal box, electrics, tank, propshaft, fuel tank, expansion tank, other bits
Undecided:
. Seats
. Steering wheels
. Donnor supliers
What can I do (cheaply) to decrease the unsprung wheight???

Here here. Id add to that the way in which they put kit buyers as a higher priority versus other sales. Its never easy to turn business away, but
its a great feeling to know your in safe hands.

Use a 3.14 diff with 13" wheels rather than a 3.62 with 15" wheels.
Choose your wheels carefully - some are a lot heavier than others
Use solid discs at the front and drums at the back.
If you do want rear discs, I think I have read that rear drum hubs converted to discs are fractionally lighter than the rear disc hubs. I'm not
sure thats exactly true.
Does the inboard front dampers option from MNR reduce unsprung weight (a bit)?
