Go for b2b or yozza only for exhausts. Ktec ones are shit, simples. With regards to setting up your coilovers there's only one place to go in Mansfield, tyres 4 u, 01623 661501, they are sound blokes that dial everything in bang on and charge a proper price (cheap) plus it's a hunter system.

He has the other bucket... Don't get why he aint fitted it lol. If i were him, i'd strip the back out and get the 2 buckets in or just sell the buckets and get another VTR seat (think i've got the other haha!)

So, set my coilover's up. What a nightmare. Raised the front by 15mm, after lot's of faffing. Still didn't look right. So i lowered the rear by 5mm.
If i'm honest, it's lower than i'd planned - but it does look good! Walking back to the car in the petrol station tonight i felt very smug
Getting decent picture's couldn't happen today and our drive is sloped in every angle you can imagine so it doesn't show the stance properly. But here's a sort of teaser pic 'til i get some better one's...
