Yeah I've heard of Wynns doing a product of that sort. Ah well, bad times are over. Ta Fezzyzetec.
Small update: Had a go at the rear suspension setup.
Starting taking the arms and wishbones off. Look at that lovely rusty chassis rail.
Cue plenty of snapped bolts from removing the rear LCA's.
Long story short, replaced the following arms with uprated Hardrace bushes:
2x LCA's + new Honda bolts
2x UCA's
2x Mugen Gold 5-ways with new Honda damper bolts
2x rear Hardrace ARB D link bushes and new honda bolts for the Hardrace ARB droplinks.
Painted the d link bush holders, tie bar and ARB itself.
Rust treated and painted the chassis rail.
re-painted the rear callipers
The only things I've not changed are the rear compensator arms as they will need cutting off and replacing, and I have some fresh new Honda bolts for these too.
So the rear is nearly there suspension wise.
Then I broke my left index finger and may lose my nail due to jumping out the car too quickly and not moving my hand out the way quick enough from the closing door. Very annoying. Reason being I couldn't get into gear. The amount of air in my clutch system was insane - I must have a leak somewhere, but it must of been brought to light from the car sitting at a high angle (nose down) for a while. All is well for now and I can select gears again.
So with one hand I'm limited, but managed to get my bumper off on Sunday:
Got the hacksaw out and DIY'd it to promote more air flow into the engine bay and onto the rad. Nothing clean but not bad for a one handed job. Less subtle and not as much to my taste but needs must.
So that's it for now. More to come at the weekend maybe. Maybe a trial fit of my oil cooler, and a mock up of a heat shield to protect the radiator from the manifold. Maybe even a massive fat hole in the right-hand side of the bumper next to the numberplate to get more air at the radiator.
Cheers

Well, more so in standard form perhaps lol
Need to invest in a better jack next as the Halfords one is great for getting under my car as it's so low but naff for getting any decent clearance.
