You fitted 195's in place of the standard 205's? any reason?

Honest reason, price.

In reality there is very little difference between 195 and 205 if anything 195 look a better match to the rim than the 205's did.

Ok so managed get my rear coilovers done tonight I will do the fronts tomorrow. To protect the coilovers from corrosion I have used bike chain wax and it's good stuff.

Rear shots.

Also fitted chrome indicator bulbs front and rear.

Removed rear number plate ready to drill the sheared screws and fit Vrs Motorsport number plate surround.

Coilovers now fitted, rears all the way down and the front are twelve thread from the bottom.

Also fitted a LCR splitter. I need to get some decent pictures but a quick phone shot below.

Lovely!!

Hi mate,

Whats the reason for using the Seat bump stops? I need to replace mine as they are shot.

They are half the size meaning they are better for lowered cars.

New cup holder to replace ash tray.

Nice man, ive got one of these of my list of things to buy!

£4.94 - Bargain!

I've just ordered a nearly perfect catch can that needs some modification.

Should arrive on Tuesday with any luck then I will start to mock it up.

Few hours up at my friends garage saw the catch can fitted.

The first bracket Steve (my friend) made was this one

Which mounted like this

Very practical and in a nice location but the engine cover wouldn't go back on without modification so I decided to mount it next to the air box

Then I hooked up the pipes

Jobs a good un

Where did you get that from? I hate not having a cup holder

TPS mate

Looks a nice neat fit on the catch can, but it doesn't really lend itself to being emptied easily or quickly. Like the cup holder too!

If you have a look on the site there is a gold coloured bolt looking thing... its a sump plug for the can

Worst case I have to get a posi drive and a 13m with long extension to remove air box which doesnt take long.

Is there a part number for the awesome cup holder? And did you friend just spray black paint on his bonnet?

Yeah, I can see that but it's still not "user friendly" As its lacking in space as far as i can see and to remove the bolt and catch the crap in a container is going to be interesting! But it's functional, so fair play.

Any chance of posting some side on pics so I can see what the ride height is like with the FR bump stops, can't really tell from the picture thats there

My car is -65mm. I will get some better pictures this weekend after car wash.

The bump stops dont make it lower?

Hi there what is a pd160 panel filter i want a performance filter could someone post me a link cheers

What is the difference between using FR bump stops over vRS bump stops then? Surely if the FR bump stops are shorter then there is more spring travel meaning the car will sit lower?

It's a PD160 intake, simply a larger intake hose. It's an expensive piece of plastic to say the least!

I wouldn't stress over performance filters, OEM is just fine.

Shorter bump stops just means your car wont sit on them all the time if you go mega low.

Rear brakes were making some strange noises so fitted solid brembo discs and pads.
