I reckon I'm going to stick with these though, gives the car a totally different look. Just need to spend some time now setting up the suspension and tidying up the engine bay.

Here's some pics of it when it was clean!!

I've ordered some new coilovers and they should be here next week. The Cusco's that came with the car are totally fooked!! The car keeps bottoming out over bumps in the road and is really impossible to drive at speed. Because of this (and also because the fitting was rubbish and it hangs too low) the Buddy Club exhaust has taken a battering and the bracket over the middle silencer has torn round the edge of it's weld. I took it apart today for closer inspection but will need to get it welded up asap. I did manage to get it fitting a lot better though so ground clearance shouldn't be so much of an issue now. Can't wait to get the new shock on and get the back end lowered a bit. I've got some new grooved and cross drilled discs to go on the front end too, which I should be able to get fitted next weekend along with the shocks and rewelded exhaust. Should make the car a whole lot more fun to drive. 8)

- Wed May 09, 2007 1:50 pm #7587 This car is Mint! The paint looks brand new and the interior is so clean... But then there is that chipped up valve cover :oops:
Re-paint that valve cover and I'd vote this car to be Ride of the Month :thumb:

- Wed May 09, 2007 6:15 pm #7601 Yeah, the engine bay will be getting a make over in the coming weeks, along with the suspension and brakes. 8) Need to get some new tyres fitted and my new K-Sport coilovers. I also have new poly bushes to fit and front discs too.

Too busy to do it at the moment as I just moved house last week and have loads of things to get sorted out. Still don't have any internet access at home either and I'm off work for the next week too, so will keep checking the forum when I can get round to mates house. :thumb:

Not sure if the Cusco's are repairable or not the seals have gone on all 4 shocks. If they are rebuildable then it will probably cost as much (with postage costs) as the K-Sports cost me.
