Here's a few more pics of the car during it's winter rebuild:-
Car in the air ready for stripping
New Skunk 2 front camber arms
New K-Sport coilovers & various springs
Front lower control arm stripped, painted and rebushed with Energy Suspension Bushes
Due to the fact that the K-Sport coilovers didn't have any means of attaching the front brake hoses (unlike standard Honda shocks) I Cut the brackets off a set of standard shocks and welded them to the front forks. Much better than the usual tie wrap method.:302:
Trying out the Sprint Harts
Trying out the WedsSports
Engine Bay.
So, still to be done is the rear end. I have a full set of uprated bushes that should go on this week, along with slightly softer rear springs. Then it's back to the engine bay for a tidy up.
