I've not read the whole topic - apologies - I'm a bit drunk and lazy...
Just had thoughts though...
Why not fit a VTS/GTi rear axle on poly mounts, with GTi 25mm ARB, and billie B8 shocks, slightly lowered.
You get the discs at the rear.
Then you get the B8 fronts, solid tops and 155 faulkner springs, lower strut brace.
Then you get the GTi wheels and some sticky rubber.
You've got an awesome handling car you can learn to drive properly at safer speeds, and as your experience grows, because the car is modular, you can simply mod the engine because your chassis will be sorted!! As and when funds/insurance allows it.
You can have your cake and eat it - it's loads of fun skipping round the outside of people on roundabouts because you've not had to brake!!
