I got a pretty nice STD GSI. It's a mix'd sus kit of racing dampners from Spax and std springs out of a 1.4 8V. very stiff ride but slightly lowered but also not too high.

Anyway i need to do something with my drum on the rear. i wana go disc but haven't a clue what i need...i belive there is no full on bolt on kit..ie: take the car to kickfit and say fit this....or is there??

Anyway post pics of what ya have done, painted or gone for disc

The calipers or the rear drums will not corrode or go rusty after being chromed.

they may reflect light into the eyes of a passing sparrow causing it to crash into your car and its beak may cause trauma to the paint
