Haven't been on for a while so it's well overdo an update!! Now I have been a lil daft in the fact I may of bought an off roading toy for the winter which i have replaced with the daily driver so now the sprint is my daily
the missis aint too happy but ah well!
So firstly I have changed the seats over. This was a definate after buying knightriders modified engine! Heres a pic of before:
Got one in:
Finished just need hoover!!
Once seats were in I set about lowering it! Only an inch or so lowering the car on the springs. When I got a bit more money I'll hopefully be upgrading for decent set of shocks!
Bought rear springs off ebay. These turned out to be uprated fronts lifting the front 2"s higher than standard
!! Eventually scraped the funds for Rimmers 1" springs all round!
New spring vs Old spring.
Polybushing as I went - I hate polybushes......
The red springs were the wrong ones frustratingly so out they came again
Took apart the brakes and gave them a good overhaul which gave me a much better pedal. When the new engine goes in I'll seriously be considering the trackerjack conversion or something simular. I dont know how others get on with engine modifications with standard brakes? Think its a trial and error situation as the car wont be a daily driver by then hopefully!
Cant tell anything from before and after pictures but here are some random pictures I found from when one of the seats were in.
Let me know what you think! Sorry its not to all the purists taste but I LIKE IT!!!
