Mines got a bit of a knocking noise at the rear over bumps aswel, dunno what it is.
Still hoping im going to have big power in the summer. Want the brakes doing over winter though. Need a parts list for bith, so I can get hunting for parts. Going for 312mm and 256mm.
Im gunna order a rear ARB soon, not sure about the front atm. What rear bushes you getting??
Aye but that MK1 has a G60 lump in.
I know you need GT/Fab VRs hubs, been looking for a set for awhile but gave up as people were wanting stupid money for them
I am just going to get the Powerflex Rear Beam Mounting Bush see what that does, saying that I dont even know what it is lol

mk1 G60s are awesome, alot of maintenance for them though. Dave had nothing but problems at first with his, but when it was running it was fantastic.
The hubs are quite hard to get hold of and like you said when you do find some silly money.
I'd go for R32.

Was just woundering what people are using to unlock the front?? I didnt get a key or anyhting with mine and garage set the height and i dont have the tool to adjust them....
I'm thinking about gettin some ready for the shows next year, do you need to change the drop links with AP's
I'm thinkin about getting some 17's with some stretched tyres too do you think that the AP would look ok or would people recommend going for a kit that goes lower.

They are fine with 17s, but dont go low enough to run 16s. But imo the only way to pull 16s off peroperly on a 9n is with air.
Ive got about 20-30mm to go on the front but the back is fully down. Getting my new springs fitted next week, so ill post some pick up. Hoping they are alot shorter than the AP springs.
I havent changed the droplinks on mine. They standard ones have been fine. Could get the mondeo ones but they are only slightly shorter so i didnt bother. If your wanting shorter droplinks order some from vemon.
