Cleaned the Works today

Needs to go lower!

Personally i think they look terrible once fully colour coded, maybe because i'm so used to the plastic arches! Tend to find colour coded ones have been done for their wives, as it always seems to be a female thing!

Haha it's set up for the mean streets of London height wise! Speed bumps can kiss my ass. When I first had them installed both front and rear wheels were tucking. Looked ace but even used to scrape the bumper lip on smooth roads lol. Wasn't much fun. It's now more reminiscent of how my 182 handled but with bags more pace. Have to say I have major respect for how that car came from the factory!

Nice one jay, coming along well. Are 1320 doing the work on it for you? I'm still tempted by another mini but the lure of a powerful trophy is too much

Yeah will be getting 1320 to do it all. They treat your car like gold.

I can see why you went back to an RS. As a turn key proposition with excellent fuel economy they are totally unbeatable. It's been a long journey to get mine handling sweet partly because I did so much research on making a fast road car rather than loading up on track parts just to look like a hero. It will be finally there with the last alignment along with corner weight. Going to wait till the weather is better, get a few dings removed, get it detailed and the adjustable roll bar links for the CW. Car will be done bar the engine and brakes then. Might try and see if I can source R56 rear trailing arms to shed a lil weight from the back, I'm addictEd to handling mods lol!
