He has been very busy on my car lately.
The problem is while waiting for the clutch plate to arrive I keep thinking of other mods that can be done. The back end will have to wait a couple of months till I have saved up my pocket money.

Very nice Dave.


What ARB's are you using? I like the welded on ARB retaining washers to stop side to side movement. That's a nice touch.

They will still last miles longer than Whiteline stuff. The Whiteline stuff looks rusty and old in no time at all. Tempted to take all my bits off and have them freshly powder coated.

You'll be fine Dave. The orange anodised Whiteline stuff on mine still looks fine after thousands of every day road miles in all conditions. It's the painted Whiteline bits like the silver ARB's that look very poor very quickly.

Almost on queue... Someone has just posted a couple on here up for sale. That's how mine look after 1 seasons use.

Chris @ CDF uses Whiteline bars and re-paints them CDF orange to sell on as his own.


If I had to buy again I'd probably go Superpro. Have quite a lot of their parts on mine mixed in with the Whiteline parts and they are very good indeed.

Ryan has been coating the parts with ACF50. Hopefully that will help them last.

Waiting for this clutch plate is getting a bit tedious!!
The only plus is I haven't been driving on the salt covered roads lately.
