you should put a set of poly bushes in the front of her lad, tightens them up far better than the shitty ford bushes plus they'll not be fucked again next year at mot

Well looking to purchase some sort of suspension in 2 weeks time and was looking at G-max 40mm hardened shocks + springs. £220 from demon tweeks and have been told that for a budget setup there pretty good. Any input?

Well i would have the lattices anyday, stick on the rs skirts and the lattices would look even better on it. Oh and save a little more and get coilovers, you wont regret it
