Re: UT Restoration, New Thread, NEW SHELL!!!!!
yeah, it is a little big for the UT lol but i never do things by halfs! its gonna be pretty laggy, but then again i love turbo lag! adds to the fun
as for the angle grinder, just the centre bumper mounting point has to leave. nothing too major

Unos are designed to be LHD. All the boosters on LHD cars are on the LHS of the car, bolted straight to the pedal box. When made RHD there is no room for the booster on turbo models on the RHS. They had to make the elaborate crossbar mechanism and fit it to the LHS side. Mk2 70sx also has it over there.
