And the fuel breather . Note the newly painted section where they blew through with the mig and nearly blew the car up.

Had a nice day yesterday completing the rear end fit of the kit. Took me the whole day, but got it PERFECT!! :D

Then spent the evening finalizing parts for my rear coilover conversion.
 
You sure you need those spring rates? They seem very high, considering by converting to true coilovers you're also moving the point at which the spring acts further toward the wheels so you should comparativelyreduce the spring rate to ensure the wheel rate stays the same

This is what I meant!

Apologies if you're way ahead of me here and I'm just teaching you to suck eggs, but just thought it'd be worth the heads up beforehand!
 
Ed, your actually spot on mate, but it's offset by my huge aero. 180cm rear wing will provide a huge downforce at speed. Also by the increase in track/slicks.

Are they supposed to actually do anything?
Nah, but mine are due to be replaced anyways, and got these at the same price as OEM. They actually do make the spark burn brighter/more complete burn, but at the expense of spark plug life. Either way, no Biggie.
 
Not sure Liam, ill chuck them on the scales when they get here. These will allow me to put the diff up a bit further without notching the frame as much and allows the hub to extend out 15mm. :thumbsup: I could have bought Billit ones, which would be lighter for sure, but I bought these as they are bent and definitially stronger than the bent billit ones. (if i would have gone for straight, i would have bought matching ones to my front arms from Magnus racing.)
