I would if I were you, HEL ones are priced very well and good quality, added bling too
Cheers, yeh its always a nice feeling when it all just fits together "like so".
The brake hoses will be changed however I need to decide on my set up first because I will obviously get the hoses to match. At the moment I think the most likely candidates are the twin pots from the accord type r with 300mm discs. Heard nothing but good things about them.

Nice work
Yeh, the colour scheme is a bit of an "acquired taste"haha.

As sneakyparrot confirmed, the yellow bushes are the stiffer 90sha ones.
Went with genuine Rover trailing arm bushes though... like you said, some complex movements going on there so stiffening up the pivot is probably not a wise move (that is the only bush not polybushed though)

I'm really not mate, your build is part of the inspiration for this truth be told.

Once a few of us have finished these projects, we should really organise a site track day.
