So a fair bit extra done to the
K1 over the last few weeks
Forge motorsports screen wash tube/cap, a nice well made piece of kit that is also the most over kill thing on this planet ever.
Next up was a bulk purchase of genuine bits,
Rear drop links
Rear top mounts
Front drop links
Rocker cover gasket (spare)
Rear brake caliper hardlines
Oil turbo feed pipe
Boost pipe seal
Oil filter drain tool
After realizing the passenger side rear caliper has finally given up the ghost and sticking after nearly 12 years of service, I decided to replace it.
**limited edition silver spec till I get it painted**
Custom front and rear braided brake lines made by APB motorsport
Now the car is at the power I am happy with..... for the moment
H&R
coilovers fitted recently but no pictures unfortunately
Handling upgrades
Powerflex black series bushes for
Upper control arms
Lower spring mount arms
Trailing arms
Also good condition bottom arms + trailing arms ready for polybushing in future.
Whiteline rear ARB (makes a big difference on these cars)
After accumulating all of these bits and bobs over a few weeks they all went on in a weekend give or take.
Rear subframe dropped, it wasn't in the best condition nor the worst I have seen so for now it was cleaned up and fitted with a C/M dead set rear kit including new subframe bolts x4
Untitled
3 out of the 4 eccentric bolts came out after a half hour of little fuss so I got very lucky.
The difference in weight of the standard anti roll bar is pretty crazy, almost feels the that of a broom handle were as the Whiteline is 5 times as heavy and thicker
One thing I also noticed was with the Oem trailing arms rubber bushes being a lot stronger density than the Febi ones I was going to use for the time being.
After realizing this the old oem ones went back on.
Subframe on
I'm going to aim at getting the underside completely cleaned and sealed in the next coming months now the days are getting longer and warmer.
A trip to AKS tuning for a fast road setup next week.
