Question P.S.

Dose anyone know the guy with the door conversion (David) whos car is on the Motorsports web sight under customers cars. I would think he would be looking through this sight from time to time? If you havent seen this car, go look its awsome then you'll all want to do it. it has to be the single most awsome, coolest, badassiest, (is that a word) thing cosmeticly that can be done.

OK.

Rather than sending a CD out to every one that requested, I posted the stuff as a zipped file on my locker.

Check that instead.

As it turned out, you can get the door parts from around 450-700 bucks.

i don't know - the SVX doors are kinda long, and it looks like they stick up pretty far when opened. i'd never be able to get out of the car in my garage - it looks like they stick up 10 feet in the air!

edit: never mind, that one picture is just at a weird angle. i saw the other one and its not that bad.

reason he sold the car

Dave the guy who had it done to his car paid about
$1500 for the kit and another $1500 to someone in
his town to fabricate and install them.

Theres no blueprint out there saying exactly how to do it
on an Svx, not to mention his way Im sure wasnt the only
possible way since he did his over a yr ago Im sure someone
can do better just because the kits have progressively improved
even for Hondas etc.

He went thru hinges and shocks on them constantly ..
hence one of the reasons he sold the car, it was getting
more of a chore then it was a benefit.

You either have to buy a universal kit for like a Supra, Mustang or somecar with somewhat heavy doors and fab them up yourself
or do as Dave did and pay someone to do it.
Personally, unless you want all the problems that go with it I wouldnt waste my $ but thats just me

Mr.Pwrlite has done the conversion too he is currently having trouble with the weight of the doors but I think it will soon be resolved. He has some pics in his locker.

Id prefer to keep the inner door beams for safety factor,
and the whole door there for strength and safety
period


If he builds some nice carbon fiber door skins
with the safety beams still inside, lmk !!
