It was time to change the suspension to be on coilovers. I wanted it to sit lower and after much debate I put her on to JOMs. I've heard nothing but good things about the quality for the price.
So, off came the eibachs and on went the JOMs only to find out the rear adjuster was a duff.
Put them on anyways but the back sat slightly high!

Straight after we fitted the new suspension, the good old 1.6 chocolate gearbox cracked and let oil into the clutch.
Gearbox £225, borg and beck clutch £110 and blood, sweat and tears!!!
My bro haha

The crack causing the slipping clutch.

Then we were up till 1am in the pitch black, rain and cold.

This got fitted and everything was sweet. Runs so much better.
In the mean time whilst waiting for my new adjuster I bought some pressed plates from Carbon Motive and some plain surrounds off eBay- look sweet as!

I then got a new adjuster and dropped the back as far as the adjuster would let me.
