That is the perfect stance. You said the ride is hard, is it back breaking or is it bearable

It's not bad at all really. The front is much better now I have shorter drop links on.
I was suprised how much it dropped on the springs.
Gonna try some wheel spacers out soon.

Thanks mate,
Just ordered discs pads and braided lines, got new centre caps to go on which il do at the same time whilst the wheels are off.

Just doing bits and bobs as I go along no real plans just yet! Would like some nice wheels soon but too much choice.

I've just replaced the front tyres and the front o/s caught over dips at low speed, it turns out it was the screw that holds the inner arch in at the top so I removed the screw and tucked the arch liner above the locater and it's never done it since.

Quick update,

A few things I've done recently,

First my brakes were awful so I ordered the m-tech drilled and grooved discs with mintex pads, they have made a huge difference! Also got the Hel braided lines to fit next week so I'm looking forward to more stopping power!





Next I removed my front splitter which was ready for some paint after catching it on a low curb.

I separated the lower centre piece and painted it black, and used vw reflex silver rattle cans off ebay, laquered and polished.

Very happy with the finished result.



Also a pic of my intake I made using the forge Maf pipe. I did this a while ago just forgot to add pictures. Excuse the dirty engine bay!
