Well yesterday was spent stripping front suspension down again Fitted Koni Adjustables, new ARB drop links and took the Angle grinder to the 400lb front coils ;D Took a coil and a Half off, doesnt look super low but the ground clearance from Chassis is only 3.5" Looks lower in Real life and in daylight ;D The main thing is the Handling though ;D ;D With proper tyres and the Konis set midway it handles like a Kart.... need more power now and need to go stiffer and slightly lower out back as well. It has too much rear grip at the moment which means Understeer when you really press on, stiffening it up should make Oversteer easier ;D It is also parked facing up hill which makes it sit up a little too Got the Passenger seat and the front carpets back in as well.... Bagged a 1/2 leather 1/2 Alcantara MR2 seat off a mate that was throwing them out ;D Goes in there nicely and means I can still get access to the back. I polished one of the rims as well just to see what it came up like and they will all come up nicely with a bit of work on the mop You can just see it on the back n this pic:

now that, I like. try getting a photo under a street lamp or on a petrol station forecourt at night, will make it look 10x lower. why would anyone be throwing a 1/2 leather seat out?

They deal in MR2s and just have too many standard seats which apparently arent worth anything The Recaros that some J-spec ones come with are what everyone wants I am not complaining though ;D I`ll get some better pics when I have more time Does look a lot better though ::)I like it again today ;D

Just a daylight pic which shows it better ;D It is on an uphill slope so although it does need to come down a bit on the back its not as pronounced as the picture when its sitting level ;D Just looking at the position of the new rear Turrets These are Group 4 Escort ones and will need modding slightly to fit the Kadett
