What diameter are your front coil overs Jon - 2.5 or 2.25?

Mines back on the road now and am a bit concerned about loss of camber adjustment

So the next job was to get this

Image

Back in here

Image

But first the gearbox had to go on and this was the first time fitting it with the mish-mash of clutch components required when using a shortened bell housing G50

Image

I fitted an alloy flywheel designed for a 3.3 turbo, an alloy stage one KEP 240mm pressure plate, a standard 3.0 turbo friction place and a G50 release bearing, oh and slim headed clutch to flywheel bolts.

And it all when together with a rizla paper to spare!
