i fitted the sways today, easy job, and good results so far
i'm leaving the HD links off for now, i will get used to things one thing at a time...
all sways are on the softest setting - i have already felt the oversteer...

thinking of getting some fatter tyres before i adjust to harder setting, what do ya's think?

i think that 18's will be a bit too rough etc for me, i'm looking for a 17x7.5 or 17x8 for it

Nice work Jezza.

If you want to track your car more often I would stick with 17" rims/tyre combo. If your after the more street look go 18".

Update:

Have fitted the hd sway links, and adjusted rear sway bar to medium stiffness. Car is starting to lose oversteer and handling is more balanced.
Time for another AHG or track day.

Had a minor bingle down my street with a kangaroo, that left me with a dented bonnet, smashed headlight and dented fender. Sourced the panel, headlight and an aluminium bonnet from JWS, and took the car to Benson at BBK.
Got my front bumper, fenders, skirts and passenger door repainted, and I'll give Benson credit for the great job he's done, I'd highly recommend his genuine, good service and painting skills

My focus now will be transmission, tune, turbo and top-mount (not necessarily in that order )
My goal is a punchy, light and fun car - so obviously this next few choices/mods will have a big impact on steering my project in the right direction.
