I'm also impressed at how well the parts are looking. Was the pas pump easy to strip down and rebuild?I think mine on my saff might be leaking.

Thanks Glenn
the pas pump was easy to take out. Possible cause of leek may be front seal and reero-ring (you can see it on the previous photos). Generally it isn't too dificult.

Very nice indeed. What Bilsteins are they B6, B8?
What springs are you using?

Thanks. Lee.

Hi Lee.
It is B6 , and the springs are standard. How will it be- we will see.
I generally do not want to change much in the car.

Sounds like a nice compromise of handling and comfort. What make are the springs in standard ride height?

Thanks. Lee.

These are serial springs and bilstein B6 can work with them. I would like it to be more comfortable and be closer to the original.

He did not say they are standard ride height springs, he said they are standard springs, as in the original ones.

Looks fantastic

Does it worry you how quickly the gold passivated stuff corrodes. I was disappointed that 1 or 2 drives out in winter and it all needs doing again (we have salt on our roads). I am going to powder coat what I can for my rebuild.

Totally amazing attention to detail, well done, tell me do you lose interest once you have finished the job and are you just keen to get on with the next project?
