that's what i'm talking about

but i doubt one would have been designed specifically with 914 parts in
mind


if i wanted to build something for function
i mean something i don't care how it looks
but i want something focussed on track driving
steering rack, least of my worries, plenty of choice, i'de prefer something newer and more mass produced > spares&cheaper

tranny, well, 914 is great, but it's old
newer reverse mounted tranny's exist
and when you talk about availability , there's more 944's or boxsters
and they'll take more torque then any 914 tranny
and i'm sure there are other cars that had suitable tranny's , newer and more numbers


if i wanted auto-x , i'de go for a FWD engine/tranny package , and mount that in the back
just like the atom , cos it's way compact and there are a gazillion possible donors, fords, peugeouts, VW's , renaults, honda's and so forth

rally setup , same difference(think stratos)
although for rally's with kitcars = no go, won't be alllowed passed any tehnical inspection if it's not based on a real car

either way , if one thinks function over form
there is way more room to think effectively

form over function = compromise all over

availability ... 914 was not at all mass produced
nor are those components built for super performance
