Alright... today this was done:

-inner front bushes installed
-inner rear- anti lift kit 
-roll correction ball joints all round. 

 

The added caster from the anti lift kit has caused the wheels to rub the shit out of the front bar, basically undrivable. 
​i lifted the car up 20mm all round, stopped the rubbing, and is a lot more comfortable to drive. 
Lowest point is sitting at 90mm now, so still 10mm from legal

 

Car drives amazingly well. I can’t believe the improvement. 

​I’ll hopefully get the front sway bar and new end links on in the next week.

Melbourners: Cruise tonight at 9pm meeting at the Pancake Parlour in Doncaster. A few of us do this route weekly, it’s heaps of fun. Usually a two hour round trip depending on how long you want to stay and chat. 
Perfect night for a cruise, come along!

Jay, did you see my PM re: quads?

 

I did just then, i didn’t notice the little message symbol up the top!

Just around town I've noticed how much the front sway bar has stiffened up the front end.
Barely any body roll and the coilovers on 12 from stiff still allow for a really comfortable ride.
Can't wait to give it a squirt at kinglake soon!

Kartboy pitch stop transmission mount installed this afternoon as the OEM one was splitting and ruined (like the LCA bushes). 
the aftermarket mounts are meant to reduce the lash effect you get whilst cornering hard and improve smoothness at low speeds (manual transmission). 

$140- 20 minute install

Here ya go 

Another update:

 

When the FSB was installed an AFR sensor went, and i finally got around to replacing that today. Ordered a replacement off Denso USA and got it 3 days later for $200. Install took an hour or two, the stupid heat shield for the cat didn’t want to go back on. 

Started up the car and the CEL has gone and i can now use cruise control!
