Been a while since i used this thread (i.e. since I joined hahaha)

Car is due in for some suspension work at long last on Friday.

Wheels World will take care of it all. It's a short list but in combination with the recently fitted ku-36's + strut braces, should make a nice difference (when setup right, should make that back-end more willing )

22mm Adj Sways F + R
ALK
Roll Centre Kit

Will add hd links and other bits and pieces in the future.

Keen as mustard

Ok suspension done. Very happy chappy

There is a new confidence in the car (and me). No more mid-corner understeer or nervousness. Point the nose, get on the throttle and shoot out the exit. Even slow speed it is a lot more balanced.

Also (dont know if this is due to the suspension and/or new alignment settings) but the ku36's have stopped squealing like pigs (pun intended ).

Cannot wait to get it down to RAC for a more thorough test.

Big thankyou to John and Bob from Wheels World.

Possible due to some camber and upgraded swaybars?
Either way, glad to hear it went well and your enjoying the upgrade

*Small Update*

Picked this up from ProRace today

Velo Clubman 4pt Harness (was this or the RPM "Duckbill")

Should keep me a little more bolstered for trackdays Will re-edit this post with a pic of the installed pic (STechnic will take care of that )



More goodies to come (HD Links, HD Steer Rack Bushes, Diff Lock Support Kit, DBA4000's + Fluid....possibly UEL J-Style headers from Wayne + PW CAI if money allows...who knows, *cough* VF34/P20 *cough*...say what?

And to think....i was "only" going to do a front lip + paint my stockies black at the start of the year (I have awesome willpower )
