New bearings + nuts,
Rocker conversion brackets/spigots,
Tie rod/rear subframe brace with shock clevis and boot floor washer,
Solid axle mounts (these MUST be fitted),
LH/RH push rods,
All rose joints,
Shock and rose joint top hats/spacers
Tapered spacer for lower push rod connection,
Two rear suspension kit rocker braces.
All bolts, spacers, fixtures and fittings.
"

but when you go through all the details of this kit and what geometry settings actually do to a car and also take into account that big names like Sandy and Colin back these figures up as they where the ones testing it ... well lets just say I personally am saving up

Would have liked to have this kit now before i finish my car , but preferred to run it as is for now and upgrade to it later on !

I wouldn't focus on the specific gain. The fact it's a gain is the most important thing :) yes get saving and get in the long que ASAP :)

As i got the feel for it the time started to fall off, first half a second then seconds, as the day went on the track started to dry out, With the rear sorted out it was time to put in some times,

By 3pm we had decided we could even rinse another 100th of a second out of it so we loaded up and went home.

The Fastest time was 47.27 and there was only 0.01 of a second between us.

All in All a very successful day testing and the Satchel chassis has knocked over 8 seconds off my time around Llandow, Anyone that buys this kit will not be disappointed, the grip levels are just unreal!

How much?

welshpug 29th March 2014 17:13

circa £2k up front and £800 on the rear and £400 for the BE conversion mountings, but best to PM them on Facebook to be sure.

You'll need to buy the dampers too.

Are you having custom shafts made by colin too josh to go with the BE mounts? If so how much?

Yes.you.do! Shafts have already been done yeah :)

I think they only do the shafts as part of the kit, if you want them separate you'll have to speak to Colin, I cant remember the exact cost of each component mate

greyjasper51 31st March 2014 07:21

thicker hubs... i saw it mentioned 307 hubs, do these fit the MA shafts? only im restricted to an MA box and thicker more durable shafts and hubs will be one of the next things on the todo list after brakes... getting ready for the next step ;) watch this space :) (it will be at the end of the year, fingers crossed itll have the same make me wet appeal as the suspension ;) )

AndySAXO 31st March 2014 07:35

I have colin kit and still have an MA box ;) Colin is making my shaft also.

hard_corejoeboy 31st March 2014 08:20

it can be done pretty easy i think ... just a matter of shortening the shafts and fitting to the 106/saxo hubs

i have a pair of 307 original shafts that where on a 1.6 16v petrol with MA gearbox want a photo and measurements for comparison???
