richie was looking into getting mk motorsport to make the rear link kit

top mounts wise
to fit std tops you could use concentric top mount fixed point

or you could use adjustable mounts but would need welding on the wings

my car is at mdv at the mo and they will be lookig into if its worth putting adjustable mounts in (will i get enough adjustment)

Stay away from Compbrake flipping cowboy's sending me twice wrong front adj track control arms and having to pay out double the labour and having to get them to fit right as the second set was from a escos, along with dealing with there shit service, what a load of hassle I had to deal with, a bad experience.

I want a series 1 style roll bar setup. Anyone making kits these days?

I also wanted adjustable tca's on the front but those are mega pricey. What options are there for adjustable geometry without having a rose jointed top dollar fabrication job?
