Thanks for the comments, appreciated, azevs do look stunning on the car. Hopefully i can get a hold of this other set then maybe sort the suspension.. Air ride or good coilovers!

air ride would be cool but very expensive. if your taking it to loads of shows its worthwile. your car looks lower on the back than the front?? it would drive nicer if the front was lower.

Havent been on this in a while, got a few updates.
Azevs are still on, went lower at the front and put 10mm hubcentric spacers on the front for coilover clearance and removed the arb.
Also installed a fabia rear wiper, cleans up the rear.
Oh yeah, also purchased red dot front drilled and grooved discs for very cheap, not a quick car by any means but its nice to have good brakes, havent installed them yet but ill be servicing the car soon and ill install them then.

Have a few pics from a show in Dublin from the summer. Came out very well :D

They are cheap, but you pay cheap you get cheap lol. They dont go anywhere near low enough and arent the most comfortable of rides, they constantly bottom out with people in the back :censored: Cheers for the comment Buddy

Did you take you arb off or did I read that wrong ? If you have taken it off why ? It makes the car handle so much better not to mention it will fail the mot with out it there for making your insurance is invalid also an uprated arb arnt alot of money then you can have adjustable drop links so you can go as low as you like

I removed it for a show a while back and havent installed it again, i do know the effects on the handling but im not a hard driver by any means. I am aware of the arb/mot problem and will be buying a fk arb with the droplinks very soon as its on my list.

Ive also heard mixed comments regarding the mot with the arb, alot of people where maintaining if you remove it you cant fail it and people saying you must have one. Im going with the 2nd one lol
