DBP ED30 - Lowered and Milltek fitted
« on: March 13, 2012, 11:20:11 pm »
Just endured my first winter with the car and been battling against the M1 daily filth that seems to stick to it! Gave it a good foaming, clean, lime prime and three coats of wax to start to get it back in order. Good to see the protection I gave it last year seems to have done the job. Milltek getting fitted together with a Sachs clutch plate & cover asap! Excuse me for the obligatory underground car park shots  :signLOL:

Re: DBP ED30 - Sachs clutch, lowered and Milltek fitted

On a trip to APS in Brackley to get my Sachs clutch fitted I thought it would be rude not to add some H&R 30mm lowering springs and a cat-back Milltek. Love the way the car feels now, not too much stiffer than the standard springs but hugely improved the handling and the Milltek really makes a difference.

APS offered a very knowledgeable service with no nonsense................can't recommend them enough!

Brakes on the agenda next!  :grin:

Brings a tear to my eye that the old girl is being treated so well!  :laugh: :noteworthy:

How does the new clutch feel now? Surely ready for some more bhp now!  :wink:
