i own the first ka in the speedhunters pic and have been driving on the cossies with the ka for the last 4 years.

lowered 40mm all round, eibach shocks apexi springs, the cossies and 195/45/r16 uniroyal tyres make it a go cart.

altough mine hasnt the soppy power steering but grip wise should be the same.

(btw glad to see my car being used as an example its a nice first)
