    Suspension Height Question

    Does anybody know the height from the coilover top-plates to the centre of the hub? At a guess I'd say around 60cm but if anybody knows or can find out that'd be great. I'd go and measure but my car is not at my house at the moment.

    Rear lower control arms

    Looking at polybushing the car and seems that it doesn't cost much more and is a lot less hassle to just swap the LCAs. What ones have people used? I know the function 7's are supposed to be good but at £225 (or so) they are quite a bit more than say the D2's at about £110. Anybody used...

    Tried to fit my new ASTs today and had a few problems :( When I took the Mugen's off the track rod ends (I think that's what they are called!) were joined to the coilovers facing upwards, didn't think anything of it at the time and the Mugen's taper shows this to be correct (wider at bottom)...
