Looks good, but get it powder coated before you put it on as it'll rust like hell over here

 

[STOCKY]

But where does it go???

Good point about the rust but

look at sump gaurds they do one for the 130bhp and therefore 100 stocky ( for the man with the wee turbine )

It fits across the bottom of the wishbones. . .

 

[STOCKY]

for £40 I think I might give it a try.

Off Topic
Jason hows your clutch doing after your remap?

 

[stoneyfordNI]

is it just me but arent the wishbones a moving part , surely this must go across the lower subframe,

I didnt fit mine but i think you have to take off the splat guard under the car and fit it on the bottom of the suspension.It only took the garage about half hour to do it so it cannot be that hard if you have a ramp.

where the wishbones mount to the subframe . had one on my 16v GTI along with all the other braces (front upper,front lower,rear upper)also front and rear ARB's eibach springs koni dampers with fast road settings.
cornered like a rollerskate rattled your fillings out if you ran over a cats eye.

Also had an Intergrale with group a suspension all round. Awesome handling shocking ride quality.
Unless your gonna be a track day demon stick to standard suspension

Ive got one (OMP, same as that)..... dont bother with it!

it bolts between the wishbones... thats IF you can get it to fit.
mine was a fair way off lining up, and i wasnt about to start shifting my subframe around to get a decent fit.

if you want one.. you can have mine for £25

 

[stoneyfordNI]

if its that good il pass , think il stick to an upgraded front n rear anti roll bar -------u getting this kyle

One of our guys fitted one of these on his Fabia, it hanged so low to clear the diff on the gearbox he caught it on everything and his car wasnt lowered.

Stupid.
