The Cynos finally gets modified: £1000 of suspension stuff installed...

A REAL update:








Oh, and Installed:
- RS*R springs
- KYB SS Shocks
- Whiteline panhard rod
- Whiteline castor kit
- JIC Lower arm brace
- HKS Top mounts
- SPATS rear strut brace
- Ultra Racing fender braces

To be installed:
- Starlet GT rear axle
- Ultra racing floor brace (just need - apparently impossible to find - longer seat belt bolts)

Next on the cards:
- Brake system upgrade (discs, pads, hoses)
- Mild engine rebuild
- Quad throttlebody preparation (fuelling, unichip...)

quite a bit, but mainly I felt the very hard and bouncy ride, will give more accurate feedback on the handling/steering once I go on a trackday (which will be a while, engine needs a small rebuild), but the steering is much tighter, linear and direct, and the car rolls a lot less, settles quicker into a corner and just has much better linearity in a corner (i.e. doesn't wallow everywhere, keeps to its line)

Mine is currently in a slight state of oversteer which is odd in a fwd car. Can't wait to get a few more parts for mine to see if it stabilizes.
