loving the setup
what mods are needed to fit coilovers to a s2? as the previous owner has put gaz coilovers allround on mine and one of the coilovers protruds in to the boot

I'd say at a guess,that the rear anti roll bar has been ditched,as the new coil-over set up will more than compensate's for its removal!

Not that Andy needs to worry about an MOT, as AVA will take that long to get the thing finished that we'll all be in our Hovercars drag racing on Saturn for space credits before Andy needs to get it taxed..........

OI Euan steam isnt a word I want associated with my car, especialy when it moves
The reason it only moved and isnt MOVING relates to the old managment & compatability issues with the coilpacks.
Modifications to resolve the issue have not proven sucsessful hence me purchasing new management a few weeks back(cars been a project for far to long and needs completed).
I mention this above, which needs fitted before the car can be mapped, again hopefully within the coming weeks rather than months
Rab STFU
Its an old post which has crept to the top. Tell you what though, im more determined now than ever to see the car back on the road
Alex Lack of antiroll bars hasnt been an issue, thankfully

Would be cool if you'll make it to Crail would love to have a look
