Idrees Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 Haha cheers guys.Okay I was planning on buying some Cusco coilovers but I have decided not to. Instead, I will go for some other handling mods such as Anti-Roll bars and Anti-lift kit because my KYB shocks and TRD springs are good enough (well I'm told). To start off with, I have just ordered myself a Whiteline rear adjustable Anti-roll bar :angry:Next will be an Anti-lift kit followed by an EP82 rear axle with the brake disc setup hopefully (if its ready for me to collect!!)

I will show you all what I have got when all the final parts have arrived ;)Rear end on axle stands ready to be attacked with hammerite and Waxoyl from underneath And when its all getting put back together I will replace a few 'bits' ;)Bumper is also undone as I will be refitting it properly with new underarch clips etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Liam_D Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Looking good mate, i take it that the new steering wheel hasnt got the airbag??.I want a aftermarket wheel but dont want to lose the airbag. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted May 16, 2008 Author Share Posted May 16, 2008 Nope no airbag mate.I've heard loads of bad things about airbags and broken necks so I'm quite happy without it! I was planning on changing it before the airbag blew too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
