Cheers Guys!!! Yeh shes a gud un i must admit!!! it kills both mine and my grandads 1.7's!!!!
No problem fogs mate!!!!!
Yeh Dai i will be talking to you very soon about springs and stuff!!! For now i may experiment with those GLT springs i have for the front!!! And i have those Spax for the back!! Can i get away with using them purely as dampers for now do you think?? If not i will be needing some low rated springs soonish!!
Cheers Adam

That looks awesome, Adam. I'm guessing the handling is much tighter? Point & Shoot

To be honest as a whole a 300 should understeer slightly from new, this setup is that tight it now oversteers doesnt it james???........
So its a gud excuse to tighten the back up now and drop it to the ground!!!
First i have to mod the exhaust first though as the join from centre to rear box is very low!!!
I have a cunning plan to do this if it will work!!!!
