Yep,
You'll get both for use in different areas of the build.

There are a lot of metric equivalents for imperial sizes
e.g.

3/4" = 19mm
1/2" = 13mm
etc

so you may not have to buy too many....

ok,
I'll see this when i build.

I change post title because I have others questions about Vortx:

Can you think build a BEC in LHD configuration is possible ?
I think of clearance of exhaust system with steering column.

I'm sure MNR have done a few LHD cars, adding extra joints to the steering columb to get around the engine/exhaust. i'd not buy any imperial tools upfront, i have a feeling there's only 3 imperial sizes off the top of my head, and 18 and 19 fit the suspension bolts quite well.

Ok, so imperial bolts is not a problem, thank all for reply.

Another question: Someone know if prices for starter kit, modules and parts are updated on MNR web pages ?

You are best contacting mnr for pricing. They will tailor a package to your needs and quote accordingly. Very helpful guys.

Hi.

I've built 2 MNR LHD by now (crashed first, so total rebuild inc. chassis, fibres, plumbing, etc...).
It's just a couple of imperial bits, hardly any need for new tools.

MNR are top guys. Just be VERY VERY careful when receiving fragile goods - don't let the courier leave without actually taking a good look (guess how I had to buy a 3rd bodywork / tub).

For a Se7en, I'd be building an MNR again.

Regards from Portugal,
Joao
