Uhm.... I would bet you're using a Mazda 6 body if you have this problem (forget it... just seen the attachment you put). Did noticed that 3rd body post has an offset just to slightly move around their position? Double check it and correct if is installed in the wrong direction.

For a correct placement of the Stratus 3.1 body, you need to trim about 1cm of the front bumper. If not, happens what happened to you, all the body is displaced to the front.

Regarding the Ninja .12... good luck with the wait, waited for 4 months and seems that more wait is intended (ends of May, first of June - this is the last comment). Got p*ssed and bought a pair of Sirio Evo3 Sti... I'm not regreted with the change.

To all: take a second look on your engine mounts and check if any part of the crankcase touches with the engine mounts, when warmed, everything will grow-up and can drive to a distorted crankcase or other weird problems (some novas and Sirios touch slightly).
