    making the jig and figuring out how much you want to shorten and adjust for ackerman is the hard part.
    could probly do a pair for you for a price if you wanted?
    i had to shorten my trackrod ends and tierods too so i could get the wheels straight again but thats only because i have rack spacers aswell.
    if i didnt have them in then i wouldnt have to touch the tierods/ends at all.

    meant to update this but kept fogetting haha
    since last time i got 2 toyo proxes t1rs for the front, a garage vary replica lip,
    and swapped 2 14x6 meshes for 2 14x7 nicely offset longchamps! good deal i think.



    "enjoy driving topless"

    then finally got her out on track in mondello there at track attack on friday!
    nearly didnt get to it because my waterpump pulley fell off, crank pulley keyway is worn making the pulley rattle itself off every now and again and
    the timing belt snapped! managed to get it all sorted just in time for friday though thank f*ck.
    thanks to everyone who took pictures.






    was my first day out in mondello and definitly wont be the last!
