Not until now! It's in Leyland (although I'm sure you've googled it the same as I did!)

Looks impressive. What you thinking?

Bit of a trek to go for tracking if you're from the Wirral?! Be prepared to be wowed by all the Corsa chavs 'croozin' round Leyland dipping in and out of AFL (a Halfords style place) if its still there.

Yeah will keep you informed. Not sure where he is, booked in a week today. I found out who he is, did some work on my old evo 7 many moons ago, too top guy. I put a thread up on the type r forum and the guys on there have a high regard for him.

sounds good always nice to have someone decent to tweak your car on your doorstep, last lot i put trust in ruined my turini's removing the tyres! pheonix motorsport are well regarded with setting up cars and are based in church, ( accrington, near blackburn )

Bit of an update. So just got back from Grinspeed after getting the tie rods replaced and the tracking done. One word 'transformation'. After going to various places and knowing the car doesnt drive aswell as it should i wasnt holding out that much hope tbh. All work was done proffesionally and the attention to detail was superb. the car drives a million times better, the coilovers were all over the show, as an example, 2 degree neg passanger front wheel and the drivers side was 1.2 neg so you can imagine how much better it drives now. If you need your coilovers setup I urge you to give these guys ago. Stevie will quote you (very reasonable) and the price will stay the same even if it takes longer. I have no alliance to these guys atall, trust me use them!!. Any questions feel free to pm me :)

Dan.
