Easy build steps to configure your own self build Raptor

STEP 1

      Decisions You Need to make

  • Consider a lowered floor option if you are over  6' 4"  (1.93m).

  • Right hand drive (UK spec) or Left hand drive.

  • Which engine are you going to use.  eg (Ford, Mazda) or perhaps a bike engine.

STEP 2

Did You know !   

The Raptor SB5 UHP-1 and 2 chassis are configured so that Mazda MX5 Mk2/2.5 parts fit our chassis. 

Skill Set

Points to consider...

​

  • Determine your Skill Set ie are there areas of the build that you would require help with eg wiring.  If you have a trusty friend to help you that's great!  Otherwise we can support you.   

  • Purchasing re-manufactured parts from Raptor will make the assembly of your kit straightforward and you will be less likely to be issued a "Q" plate upon registration. 

  • While the chassis is designed for MX5 parts, some of these components have been re-designed and will require some modification ie they are not a straight swap.  We do offer an exchange service for these items 

  • Consider how to register your Self build kit.  See IVA section for details

Need Help?

​​

  • Our pre-built kits are very popular which means that you can fast track your build!

  • Are you limited for space?  Then our rolling chassis option gives you a mobile chassis.  Perfect for moving around your workspace. 

  • Are you terrified of electrics?  Do relays, push button switches, latching switches and wiring a lighting circuit compliant to current IVA  regulations give you the fear?  Then our IVA wired chassis options is for you!  This takes all the stress out of your build.

  • ​In order to comply with the current emission regulations complex engine management systems are required to control every aspect of the running of a modern high performance engine.  These can easily be prewired by our team of factory engineers
