Whats the handling like on the back with those springs? They're sat the same as mine, i.e. two coils touching.

[let_nova]

touch and go in the wet but you can trust it. in the dry its **** hot. had no problems. im running 195/45/15 mazda wheels. no rubbing or that. should be even better now with the powerflex bushes etc. how does yours?

[let_nova]

no there isnt!!!

[Jack]

how does yours?
Dunno yet, it won't be on the road for a while lol

[let_nova]

ah ok. cant wait till mines done!!!!

I assume the seam sealer is hiding welds?

Rear springs look odd with coils touching... thats never right?

As my brake unions were rusted less than that/\, and all failed an mot.

You've fitted the engine without painting the seam sealer/primer in the bay???
