Bit of an update, made it down to AKS Tuning on Wednesday to see Alex and he fitted me up with the aforementioned handling mods, here's a shot of the kit before it was fitted:
Here's the Superpro alloy arms connected up the anti-lift kit with the H&R anti-roll bars behind, love the colour!
Mmm, shiny!
After it was all fitted Alex took the car to the TT Shop a few miles down the road to do a fast road wheel alignment on their Hunter Rig.
I had a good drive out last night around some twisty country lanes and it has made such a big difference to the handling! The turn in is massively improved, the steering is a little stiffer but that's definitely a good thing, and the grip level is now off the scale. I was going around corners far quicker than I was able to before and was nearly coming out of the chair with the extra G-forces
Now for the downside, I'm getting a fair bit of creaking from under the front of the car when going over bumps in the road. I had a 175 mile drive home after they were fitted at AKS in Bedford, and there was zero creaking, so I'm not sure why it is doing it after being sat for 24 hours. You can see in the photos that all the bushings are greased up well, and the H&R bars are supposedly creak free compared to many of its competitors. Just waiting to hear back from Alex about what might be the issue, just hope it's not permanent as I hate any noises that shouldn't be there in the car!
