« on: 15 November 2011, 07:23 »
Hey, just thinkin of a few ideas for after the winter, in the process of collecting via for a k04 set up and hoping for about 260+ bhp so was just wondering what setup I need in improve the handling and where I could source the parts.

I've already decided on gettin some weitec gt coil overs it what else should I install, are? If so which one, Polybushes? Etc

Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers

Rear arb, vrs rear bushes/TT fronts (or just all out poly as you've mentioned), new top mounts when you put your coilovers on, S3 upper n lower strut braces... To give you a couple ideas :smiley:
