Update 11th July:

Had busy day today, Sorted why i would "loose" 5th and the bush would pop out of the selector the lip that holds it in place at the top was not there to say the least. So sorted that

Old Vs New:





Then i decided to fit my Gaz coilovers (Just got sat around) on Monty now and sell the Spax RSX kit. So i fitted them and done my tracking and set my top mounts so i had More Positive camber.

Changed the ride height a little too, Raised the front and lowered the back

Old vs New









You can see in this picture that the top mounts are alot further over





I will get some more pictures when the weather is better...

I can't rate them yet as i haven't driven the car

But with customer service i would advise using damper tech

Let us know as normal...

Little Update:

Well not been working on him much recently just been doing other peoples cars

I had recently gained a miss fire underload, so i had a look into that and tracked that to be the dizzy cap, so hes all good and well again.

Gave him a good wash, clay and wax as i bought some new bits. Generally wasn't too bad.....

I Got few things to do before Combe:

Need to change gearbox, Fudged 5th gear sychro and its leaking again
New pads
New tyres

He's going into the bodyshop this saturday to have 2 small rust spots sorted out. N/S/F front sill and O/S/R sill. So hopefully he will be even cleaner

Here few pictures:








And "New" Stickers:
