Whislt I’ve been looking/working on the car I’ve noticed the rear pads were exceptionally low, so ordered them from Ktec and they arrived yesterday. So having a bit of free time today, I thought I’d change them.. so go to my toolbox to grab my wind back tool and recall lending it to a mate and...

Also got an ultra racing front strut brace to stiffen up the top mounts as I didn’t like the look of the holes against the fixings for the coil overs, could easily pop through in my opinion pics to follow.

New wishbones turned up today, so I pressed out both the new bushes and In with some powerflex jobbies. Osf is getting there, gotta sort some new nuts out and a washer for the hub/nut as it’s hanging on by its teeth.

It didn’t look right to be honest. Doesn’t surprise me though. (Rolls eyes)

Can anyone confirm if the outer CV joint where it passes through the hub should have a washer? Looks like it did have in the past, now it’s just got the 32mm nut.

What does? Lol

The lower rad hose and clip was almost on. Glad i took a look at the car now, well I am and I’m not. Lol

Sorted the rubbing headlight/intercooler pipe out.

Yes mate, just waiting for the wishbones.

Not sure how long this intercooler hose would have lasted like this? Oh well we live and learn.

New ball joints turned up today, managed to get them pressed in and the assembly back together. New wheel bearing fitted Now just waiting on the new lower wish bones which should be here tomorrow. Applied a small amount of copper slip to the bolts shoulders to hopefully allow for ease of...

You missed cage out with the buckets and harnesses. Lol

Not sure yet mate. Haven’t stripped the n/s/f. Have ordered to wishbones though, had too if I want a chance at making snet on the 22nd! Lol

Thanks for that.. Car was sold as having H&R springs. But never mind.

Not sure it’s gonna make it tbh It got worse after that pic too. Lol

As title looking for info on what suspension was on my 197 cup as will be looking to sell it if it’s worth anything?

I’m a plumber mate, got a blow torch etc. Thanks though

You haven’t seen what I’ve done to it! But there was a lot of swearing, a blow torch, and a 4” angle grinder involved.. lol I’ve ordered 2 new wishbones now, it’s more a time issue. Will sort the old ones if/when time allows as I’ve got the new ball joints on there way.

What paint you using and where from?

Anyone identify my old suspension? Looks like standard cup stuff which tbh was pretty decent on track if it is..
