Need to get the alignment done and a remap to suit the engine mods. Also need a new front lambda (£210) and to get my tappets done, leaking rocker sorted and a new driveshaft oil seal. And then

The fronts bits are now fitted...









I've also renovated the subframe as some of the braces I've seen are just too expensive...





Also touched up my brake dics/calipers and added some stickers over the lettering...





And then finally it fitted my newly painted brake stopper. Not the best fit si I had to re-engineer some of the holes and bends





Start on the rears tomorrow.

Cheers Geo, but I've got whiteline drop links and given that they have covered no more than 5000 miles and in that condition, I'm going for a set of Perrins to match the rears

Sat in my garage, but it was raining so I didn't think you'd get the scooby out to come and get it fitted. Weathers supposed to be better tomorrow

I'm away next week, but then I'm off work until 21st/22nd so we can sort something over Easter. May have decided to sell the diff cover by then too

Got the rear ones done today, the bolts on this end where a pig to undo, and technically, I should have removed the driveshafts, one bolt on each side was a real tight fit around the drive shaft boot, but I got it sorted






While I was there, I gave the rear brakes a freshening up too
