Holy sh**
Finally got round to fitting a load of new parts at the weekend and it has transformed the car
New top mounts all round.
New ARB bushes front and rear
New tranny bushes (fitted a while back)
New rear diff bushes (one of them was TOTALLY fooked!!)
New drop links front and rear
New ball joints
2 new tyres and a new alloy due to sheffields potholes
Full 4 wheel alignment
Cant believe the difference to the car All shunt is totally gone..solid as a rock. And it now handles sooo much better. Top mounts were not too bad but the difference is very noticeable.
Also, I got to the bottom of the cars slowness problem!! Fitted Samco instead of that crappy accordion and after much worked out the "MTM" chip I had was for a higher spec of S2 (different turbo etc)
Got a proper new set of chips and the car properly flies like it should well happy. 18 psi max and no boost leaks.
think maybe a set of bilsteins and whiteline ARBs might be the next thing to improve handling?? Whats the recommended combination??
I dont want to lower the car as its hard enough running on 19's!
