Fitted the front sway bar tonight was piece of piss and fitted up easy as. Looking forward to fitting the rear and driving it should make a huge difference.

Fitted the rear swaybar tonight and it took about an 1.5 hours. If it was on a hoist it would be 1/2 hour. it is not a bad kit my only fault is that when the car is low the lowest part of the swaybar is only about 80-85mm f the ground but i could alter that to make it 100mm i think. cant wait to see the handling improvement.

If you get pulled up on the street - "Because Racecar Officer"

But

If hit ripple strip = damage

Looks the ducks nuts though craig - will be even more on rails now.

I love parts day, There was nothing wrong with what was in there but I wanted the autometer mechanical gauges as they are a little more accurate than the electric gauge/sender unit and less to fault out on them.

Also got a new Heavy duty clutch today and a new clutch master slave and braided line. I rung the guy building the engine and got an update on the motor build and I should have it back and ready to drop back in the car in about 2-3 weeks, im champing at the bit to hear it run again.

Fantastic work Craig, the kit seems quite well thought out apart from the height issue you have pointed out.

It looks like you could make the link rod 20mm shorter to gain extra clearance ? I like the bilsteins in there too, top choice ;)
