You are in the camp of the enlightened, spreading the aesthetic qualities of the lithe whippy wherever you go.

Good man!

"What have you done to your car today?"

Sent it away for a week's holiday to a trusted indy in Edinburgh.
New disks,pads,sensors and replace brake fluid.
Inspection 1 service and MOT
Check fluids in gearbox and differential...replace if required.
Should be fighting fit for a summer's worth of top down cruising.

Fitted Eibach sports springs and Eibach front & rear ARBs.

I think that the lower stance suits the car better.

Fitted a sound generator to my 2.5i just now. There was no foam in it at either end so i'm either going to love it or be in desperate need of a piece of foam

Let us know how you get on!
Both pieces is overkill IMO, especially when on motorways!

Thanks a lot

All 4 wheels we're ET35 even though they are staggered fitment, fronts sit lovely but the rears needed coming out, MM and Mr Wilks advised on the 15mm spacers and they've certainly done the trick

Well i've just been for a quick whiz out the village along an A road and back. Have to say its a very different experience than before it was fitted and i do like it so far. Found that the sound was quite normal until i pressed the pedal hard and then the noise hit me. Will have to see what it's like on my drive to work as thats at higher speeds for longer distances before deciding on whether to add foam or not.

I ended up removing my sound generator because I found it to intrusive

I preferred the refined sound without it.
