looks good on them. not had experience with them myself previously had eibach sports on a few clios which were good and now running bilstein b14s on my cup which are very nice but you do feel the bumps more.
yeah he lives just behind my parents place, parks his cars outside my work all day and gets a ticket every day, cheaper than paying for parking lol. black countach, integrale, 8c, lambo sterrato, yaris gr to name a few. races in historic jim clark car as well iirc. baller
wondering that myself. doesnt look like its got rear stub axles spacers. they sit much nicer on them front and back, recently fitted both to mine and looks so much better and didnt notice any difference to the drive. looks a nice example though.
personally id be getting some eibach sportline springs then just enjoy it, needs a little drop and they improve the handling and looks without ruining the ride.
Drive out this morning, really flys now with the cams really impressed with how it goes now, handles fantastically as well poly bushes throughout have really tightend it up like on rails now with the suspension set up it's on
bought my cup cheap because it was due belts etc, was priced cheap due to work needing done. i was happy as i had it booked it straight away with a specialist for all the work to be done. im sure it will sell as is if its a nice car and price factored accordingly.

Picked the car up today from stu at renomotive. Cars driving great, booked in for mapping in 2 weeks time so drove it back gently given the cams/timing changes. It was engine out job as stu said it would be easier given everything that was to be done and he steam cleaned the engine bay etc...
Stu has the special timing tool for the 197 cams to advance the intake cam and once all the bits are fitted and belts etc done it's going in to sos motorsport to be mapped
Had the cup out for a drive and noticed a burning smell when I got on the bypass at 60mph, came off the first slip road and stopped at the lights and to my horror so smoke coming from the front of the car! Panicking I parked at the services which was just round the corner and popped the bonnet...
