I'm sure if we plan it well I can pop round and we can blitz them in a day or two depending who's available when.
As usual I dont mind getting stuck in.
Just need to get the engine together and in the wifes blobeye and then do the plumbing and wiring on your classic.
Its going to be an interesting couple weeks when you get back..... as usual.

Bren just a quick question, in the future if i fancy uprating the springs to 6/5kg.mm will I be able to get a set from you and how much would it cost for the set?

Also will I need anything else to make the change from the 5/4s to the 6/5s?

many thanks for all your hard work on this group buy, really is appreciated.

We stock a range of spares including various spring rates Springs are £30 a piece. To go from 5/4 to 6/5 just fit the front 5s to the rear and buy a pair of 6s for the front. You dont need to change anything else.

Its good to hear your appriciative of the GB, nice to know my efforts are noticed. Not that its an entirely selfless effort though, it will earn some pennies to keep on top of the bills!

Default Is it too late???

Is it too late to join the list. I discovered the shocks on my car are shot!

If I am not too late, I would like a set for a GC8 Wagon STI v3 (1996) 5/4.

Cheers

Finally got a drive in my mates spec C with BC's fitted and have to say I was very impressed.
I'm going to call this morning and see if there are still spare 05+STI kits available
Hope I'm not too late to order extenders and extra camber plates......

Quick question, for a typical road setup, are these just bolt on or will there some geometry setup required?

Hi Bren, spoke to Louise this morning about taking one of the spare kits (05+STI 6/5) Just wanted to know if I could have adjustable top-mounts for the rear and a set of adjuster extenders.
Sorry to chase you via scoobynet but I didn't get a call back.
Thanks

You'll be needing geometry after fitting mate.

Hi Bren,

Can I just check what spring rates I'm down for as they're not listed in the thread.

Thank you for all you work on this, it is much appreciated after I narrowly missed a set last time!

Cheers,
Steve

Still not back in work, my throat is still knackered. 5 days and counting, its rediculous. Anyway, still working from home so I cant do a lot towards updating peoples info. No fear though, nothing will be dispatched before Ive double checked anything, the shipment doesnt leave for another couple of days

Ill get one of my guys to drop of the relevent folder on their way home tonight and go through it here.

Oooh, no one on this buy has ordered for the 08. Give us a shout, Im sure we can squeeze a set on. We are getting tight on the earlier cars as we are ordering so many but Ive little doubt that theyd have 08 kits on the shelf so they will be able to add them with no problems. Bear in mind that the shipments leaving in 2 days so you really need to get involved tommorrow or its a defo no go!
