Great car mate, enjoying following your thread. :)
What a bummer to catch a rivit in a new tyre.
How does the new suspension help the handling. Who fitted them and how much did they charge.

list for tonight then mark fingers crossed ;)

momo knob and new red stiched gaitor (should be easy peazy ) and you get to see my bargain again :p
pillar pod ,oil & boost gauge - because they'l be antique any longer
w8 light while pillars off & wiring into lights (light fitting easy wiring not my strong point )

this is where you come in mark :p;)

Looks good Andrew. Make sure the next handling mod is bushes then you will really feel the benifit of the suspension.

cheers Maz , ye bushes and Arb's & i need to mount my S3 upper , then thinkin of the rear brace after that

already fitted oem bump stops bearings an top mounts so thats bound to have helped

one thing im starting to get desperate on is brakes , my rears arnt binding fully and is not catching the outer parts of the disk

and my fronts are getting low & and the pad sensor wire snapped on sat fitting the suspension

was also thinking fitting different brakes i,e brembos how would they plumb into my car would theres till be a pad sensor wire there to connect up etc

cheers

how is your gay light? Will sort some cables for the guages this weekend you need to decide where you are going to plumb in the vacuum pipe for the boost guage.
