quick update...
After mating the brembodge kit up (see other thread) there were a few issues with the bracket supplied that needed correcting, and so I am getting something made up to meet matt's requirements... Stronger material and slightly different fasteners and threading as a very brief summary.
The suspension has been fitted and is settling down - the spring rates noted so if I want to go progressive later I can easily work out the best way to tweak the setup...
A rather vague comment from Matt yesterday about some porsche parts being added to the car - and a partial rebuild of the rear end.... No idea about that but I wonder if there will be anything apart from the interior and the shell itself that is the same as how MGR built it soon
It is due to go through the MOT once the work above has been done, and then that will just leave the turbo side that is progressing slowly and surely in the right direction....
I am however now slightly worried that with the ZS lowered a touch as a result of changing things, It will ground out on my unpaved steep lane i have to go up to get the car on the hard standing at my house....
So far the fiesta has been fine, but I have got a couple of choices only:
1)
Drive forwards up the lane and back into drive - then having to 3 point further up to drive back past the house to get out again.
2)
Drive up the lane, three point and drive straight onto the drive - just back out and roll down the hill.
3)
Back it up the lane, then drive in straight with backing out afterwards...
visibility is better to drive out straight tbh... but i am not sure that i will get the ZS up the lane as the holes are massive further up to turn it round again afterwards..... GRRR
I will have to cross this bridge when I get the car back i think - not worth fretting too much!
