Car back and feeling good.

Just returned home from Forza GB in Chepstow who did the following -

Inspection 2
Fit Bilstein B12 kit with new top mounts
Fit Brembo conversion for front and rear with new BMW front and rear discs
Fit new RTAB with a limiter kit
Fit Vibratech engine mounts
New coil packs
Remove CDV
Flush and replace power steering fluid
New coolant

33k miles and it's first Inspection 2. Car feels very tight. It feels much more together and the brakes are exactly what it needed, the pedal feels far more positive than previously. The suspension feels less crashy but it's still a firm ride.

Big thanks to Forza who got everything done while I was abroad for a week with the least amount of fuss. It's still no GTR :P but definitely feels a more involving drive.

I saw an 06 plate blue roadster there today, car was looking good. Maybe a member here?
 
Labour was about 2k and the parts well rather not think about that!

I supplied the fluids as prefer to have Millers nanodrive CFS for engine and Fuchs for gearbox + diff.

The car does feel pretty good now though, shame that I'll soon acclimatise to this and forget the significant improvement.
 
Here's a before and after of the stance. It's improved considerably IMO. Will take better pics later. The front end is lowered relative to the rear where as before the front looked to be pointing up.

(Excuse my beautiful assistant holding the caliper in the first one.)
