Turbo Build

So this is how the car is now , engine is in , gearbox in IMG_2563.thumb.JPG.61ff7675d188021c3311602d59ae2067.JPG

Passenger drive shaft all bolted in , have fitted eibach front and rear anti roll bars , the car has powerflex bushes all round with fk coilovers on it.

 

Everything has been replaced , new hubs . Bearings , track rods and ends , ball joints , wishbones etc etc

Also bought these hefty bastards to help me stop! 334x32 discs with 17Z 6 pot calipers to go with them!
