took the front suspension off this week, to fit my new springs
removed my 9" 185lbs springs and fitted my new 300lb 7" springs
lube'd up my tubes with vaseline too
and all the rose joints
fitted my new adjustable track control arms too, so just needs setting up now,
next track day is croft RS day so got a while to sort the suspension settings out
probably going to set it up for around 1.5 - 1.8 negative camber
also purchased some Dunlop wet slicks too
think it needs a wash after my last track day at combe

Yeah all turbos mate, run cages, GTI-6 brakes and 888's etc.
the black one now has a t28 and KMS management but needs a bit more fine tuning.
Great wee cars, I want one, they way they put a smile on your face within two or three corners is amazing!

At the very least they will insist that they are gaffa taped up. The aero catches would be better, or the sunken versions of yours (like Warren has on his Escort).
They don't like anything that might catch and rip a biker as he flies over your bonnet.
