Does anyone have or know if the P1 suspension will fit onto a MY00 wagon? I've driven a P1 on and off for some time now and I like the handling. I was wondering if the P1 setup could be dropped onto the wagon relatively easily i.e. no welding mods etc. Obviously I would need to look at strut braces to stiffen things up...unless people have alternative views.

How long does the standard and P1 suspension usually last...in miles anyway. I must depend on your driving, howwever, what's the average?

If this cannot be done is there an alternative to give similar setup without going into £1000s. I've got Eibachs fitted to standard springs, but I feel it needs something more.

Thanks in advance


Ian

Why not got go the Leda B route and you end up with fully adjustable suspension to suit your needs.

Swapped my Ledas onto my P1 over a year ago.

SB - Not sure I want to fork out £££s for that kind of set-up just yet. I'm thinking about doing some track day events in the future, however, I just want to improve the current wagon feel and the P1 stuff does feel okay. Will it feel as good on the wagon, who knows. I've got some changes to do first before I make my mind up, as it's been noted that the car still understeers and the rear end does twitch about.
