right well iv had a bit of bad luck these last few weeks :sad:

the car fail its MOT on drivers side ball joint and emissions, didnt really want to folk out alot this month with car insurance, tax and a trip to a beer festival at end of the month but anyhow whats done is done

so to replace the ball joint i purchased some buddy club RCA's and i thought might aswell replace the bushes aswell since its only another two bolt so i bought some castor increase poly bushes

wasnt to bad to do only problem i had is i had to cut the oem ball joints to get the hubs off and took abit to burn the old bushes out

luckily a mate let me use his work shop so i had a 2 ton press to help locate the castor bushes nd a vice to fit the new ball joints

Awesome fella! Does look cool :cool: Do miss my Torques :(

How do you rate the Super Pro bushes? Im having mine fitted at the end of Feb..

What setup are you using for the brakes? Really like the look of them, and they fit ok behind OEM wheels with a small spacer?

i havent actually tested them yet as the car is still in bits , should have it finished today and ill update with the verdict

the brakes are dc5 brembos youll need 20mm spacers for these to fit behind oem wheels
Aye they suit the EP down to a T

Ah fair enough, let us know the verdict! :)

Cool, what pads/discs combo did you use? OEM braided hoses ok? Im sure you posted up a guide? Need to do a search rather than clutter your thread up!
