Yeh I just need to mock everything up and trim down the joiner and reducer, get it all sitting flush and possibly make a bracket for it if it needs it, so then when it finally happens can just get it all on quick!

Just been into motoscope there an paid for the filter so they can order it in, a nice 44 quid, cheapest I found on the net was 56 quid plus delivery! Result!

Roads have all thawed out too so can finally put foot down abit. Attacked a rounderbout near me and did it as quick in the cold and wet and I did back in summer and not one bit of a slip either! Cannot wait for a dry day and a blast on the farm roads to my gf's!

Car booked in next week for cambelt service, MOT and tracking checked. Will also get them to stick on the OMP front lower brace whilst its up on the ramps. Other than that nothing will probably be happening for awhile, nice and skint!

Yeh pretty much lol shouldn't have really done it just yet but had that day off and wanted it done before winter set in and before VAT went up! Got an extra 5% off for asking too so it's cool haha

Got all mine done except the gf :( that's gonna be the most expensive one! Lol

Will be going with CRT still, just ran out of money really haha got all the bits just can't afford to send turbo off and get it all fitted at the moment. Though tempted to send turbo off before vat increases!

Yeh got abit put off by it though haha only gonna be sticking this one on medium setting, felt fr was too unpredictable with it on stiffest setting, like it would grip and grip then just let go with no warning, understeering and then back end snapping out on rounderbouts happened many a time haha

ive been trying to find the limit of the rear end on mine for ages and ive only had it let go once when encourageing it to happen and it was easily saved it wasnt on a roundabout either and it was before coilovers and spacers were fitted it might let go a bit easyier now though maybe :think:.

Mine was just lift off oversteer from understeering, stiff back end induces understeer. Farm roads to my gf's there's a bend you don't really need to slow much for and pretty much went sideways round that a few times when it was a tad damp, put me off abit haha was scary when it let go. that's why I'm just gonna whack this one on medium as they do make worlds of difference but don't want it as stiff as the fr was. Not sure the heavy diesel engine was helping understeer much either mind!

:lol: the paint on the Whiteline bars is Sh!** dont let the smooth finish fool you that will be rusted to hell in 6-8weeks! I'd suggest getting it shot blasted and powdercoated buddy! just my opinion and experience! :)
