If somebody else wanted it and gave me the cash before he can get then it will be sold to them.

Ok. So weighing up my options I am keeping the Leon and will probably sell the Evo. Reason being the Evo is worth to much to thrash on a track. That is no disrespect to the Leon, its just parts are cheaper and easier to source.
Anyway I am back on with the build and this weekend coming all the bits are going on.
Springs and spacers and if weather nice get the oil cooler on.

Good choice. Evo would be really cool till it goes wrong.

Agreed. A mate had a Evo6 and parts are VERY expensive.Plus they are a nightmare to work on too.
Yup. I had a Evo back in 2006 and it was a money pit.
Just a quick question, 5mm spacers do they need longer wheel bolts?

I put 3mm on the other day and had loads of thread, 5mm wouldn't be an issue i don't think with stock bolts

Ok
Fitted the below to my car this weekend and it looks a lot better now.
- Vogtland 35mm lowering springs
- Spacers 5mm front and 25mm rears (I think I am going to machine the rears by 5mm)
- New Pagid front discs and DS2500 pads
- Front caliper refurb (face only)
Before
After with new discs and pads
Springs
I will get more photos up in the future.

Bit too much IMHO. I measured incorrectly from the hub to wheel arch!!!! Should have been 20mm max as they poke out and it looks odd from the side
Not sure TBH, but theoretically you could be right. Will have too see.
I have to say just driving back from my old mans the car has lost some of its point and squirt direction but that could be because I have swapped the front tyres to the rear as AD08r's going on front.
At the mo I have Bridgestone SO3 on rears and Joyride (previous owner bought) on the front!!!
