Longer bolts at the minute, but I'm planning on doing more trackdays so I'm going to convert to studs. Road - longer bolts will be fine, on track - if its regular track use / wheels on and off a lot I'd convert to studs.

Solid top mounts make a world of difference mate you goin for pms ones with strutbrace?

Seen a few civics mate come to the conclusion that its hard to find a good example for less than 3,500 . So guna leave the idea for now .

But at the min ive gutted the rear loving the noise lol backs a bit twitchy though :/ ordering a whiteline arb this friday hopefully . And possibly some harnesses . :)

No, for such a crucial part of the car and it's well being you need to ensure you get high quality parts.

Not that you can't get that on Ebay from specialist shops, but a lot of stuff on there could be miss-represented. Fakes/replicas/imports.

I went for the Pure Motorsport ones. They have a great reputation and they have been extensively tested. Plus a few of the other serious track day drivers on here use them too.
