Little bit more progress now, starting to shape up...




Burnt the bedreaded bushes out....




Cleaned up the stub axles with an unusual lick of colour...




New driftworks polybushes all round....



Subframe back up... Let the jigsaw begin..




All new arms, everything cleaned up, had to stick back in the lowering springs for the time being till i source two rear tein coilovers..



Finally looking someway decent at the back now... Yes I know the antiroll bar is on wrong, need to get two new droplinks... Hopefully get the front subframe cleaned up and back in now in the next day or two and it should be off for some tubbin' & lovin'!

Quick update....

Front subframes finally back together and a kit sourced!


Quick lick to the front calipers....



Anti roll bar.. (I like gold)


Subframe cleaned up...


Cleaner than what it was..


Subframe back in.. Hopefully off to be tubbed soon... For like the 5th time saying that....


Ordered myself two Aerokit 50mm rear quarters, some lovely fit on them...



Must get working on the back soon... Drop it on its arse, flip the dish in the SSR's and sort spacers....

Todays special delivery...





Treated myself to a full uras kit.... Originally from Drift bits... Hope to get it test fitted today or tomorrow and suss it out... Hopefully goes well with the aerokit back quarters. Slowly coming together...

Probably a daddys little boy with loads of money that didn't know what he had! It would sicken ya! Sure look, he devalued it enough for me to get my hands on it, happy days eh?

So got the kit out this morning, done a quick mock up... Getting excited about my choice now, quite happy with it. Here's the mock up:






Happy enough with the choice, rear aero kit quarters need a small bit of a trim just to get the back bumper and side skirt to fit properly. Plan is to hopefully flip the dishes of the ssrs, rechrome and a polish and big ass spacers to get the right fitment. Gonna look into seeing if i can mount the exhaust a bit higher into the subframe to get more low and not worry about speedbumps. Then I'm also considering venting the bonnet and be cheeky and go for a BGW or a 326 wing. One way or another I'm going rivet on the back quarters as I quite like them on an s14. Coming along....
