lad took a pic of mine in the pub carpark yesterday, I find that happens a fair bit and people look at it all the time, think its more the colour than the car though
for b roads etc I find the eibach much more compliant, but I still miss my cooksports as they sit nicer
this is on approx. 30k cup shockers all round and back to back comparison as went straight from the cooks to the eibach
ai do need the cooksports back
just the front bumper, rear bumper, rear drivers quarter and the grills/inserts chap, getting the bonnet and wings done and a dint on the drivers door later in the year after major belt service and clutch
Not posted pics of the car in a while, few changes
lass went into the back of me at the lights few weeks back, only scuffed the bumper but it highlighted some other paint issues i'd been meaning to get sorted so she paid for the rear and I got the front end done as well whilst car was in, along...
It's not the reverse on mine either. It's a bearing wearing in somewhere as mine didn't do it brand new but after couple of k it started
Doesn't bother me though as track car and earphones in on trips to /from track :)
the mk1 frame is completely different, the mk2's have turrets from the front cross member that mean the frame is 'flat' the mk1 frame curves up at the front to meet the cross member directly
this can also cause clearance issues on engine aux systems so be aware of that too
the 172 stuff bolts to the mk1 subframe, but you'll need valver wings if you go that route to accommodate the widetrack. the ARB may or may not fit depending on exhaust routing. if it doesn't you need a Williams one
you'll also need fuel system/tank from a mk1 diesel as its all different iirc...
