ok so as i was saying. Brown pants moment. Was more of a moment of stupidity from myself. But still. Basicly. Fitted the coilovers and they were scrubbing. Thought nouthing of it as the hight will need adjusting when i get my new tyres and that. So just raised it up a touch. Lowered it down. Drove it off the ramp. Steering felt very very wierd. Jumped out to see this



MAjor camber. Turns out i just needed to pull the shock outwards before i bolted it up as its got gaps to slide the hub in and out, basicly adjustable camber

Anyways. Front sorted now. Rears need to settle then be adjusted

Right, havnt updated this in a while

Still waiting on my wheels as there getting done on mates rates, so others come first
Will be done in about a week but im in no rush as i have no tyres lined up yet.
All the welding has been done
Exhaust had been finished and moved as it was rubbing against the chassis

Everythings done and ready to go.
Just need to:

Get tyres
Get the tracking done
Get the bonnet sorted out
Fit the interiour

Then shes done for now
