Re: driftworks hsd monopro coilovers

replacement lower brackets that actually fit sounds like a reasonable way to proceed with this issue, i'll phone driftworks tomorrow and see what they say.

cheers for everyones help. :thumleft:

Re: driftworks hsd monopro coilovers

yeah I phoned them already and they said I might have rear hubs that are slightly different because Toyota fitted slightly different hubs to a special model apparently. found this hard to believe as there is nothing special modely about my rev1 turbo. :D I've seen manufacturers specify that their sh...

driftworks hsd monopro coilovers

I bought a set of these a couple of weeks back, fitted the fronts to my rev1 turbo, no problem, but the rears don't fit because there isn't enough depth in the mounting bracket to accept the hub stubby bit. #-o has anyone else fitted these to their cars or experienced issues with them? cheers John

[Mk2] [Turbo] Good mechanic in Romney Marsh area (south east kent)

Does anyone know of a good mechanic or garage in the Romney Marsh area (south east kent) who has experience with mr2's or is just good.

I need the head gasket on my rev 1 doing as it went ages ago but i'm just too busy/lazy to do it myself. That and they are a total nightmare to work on. :/

cheers
