    They one of a few that does seperate front and rear bars rather than a kit. They were extremely reasonably priced and arrived at my door within 5 days of ordering. I'm very happy with it. Just the bar alone has transformed the handling.

            Yes I can't wait. My slush fund has also taken a knock with everything I've done also friends of ours have finally decided to tie the knot except its not local so there goes $1k for flights and accomodation for my wife and I. Currently saving to get the new Clutch and LSD fitted. Then will look to fit the springs.

              The money spending never ends lol. Please keep me posted on how you go with the clutch and LSD. What clutch are you thinking of getting? My RS is a manual as well.

                Tell me about it lol
                I've ordered this kit. It's built to order. Reviews are all extremely positive and is the closest I could find to stock pedal feel.

                Along with my MFactory LSD, I get goosebumps just thinking about it

                  Looks like a very good kit! I shall keep it in mind for when i need a replacement upgrade . Once fitted I'm sure you will get some serious launch's going on and even less traction lol

                  • I decided to replace the batteries in both of my keys as one went flat and the other was on it's way out. I opted to fit the CR2032 as I've heard it gives you quite a bit more battery life than the CR2025. It's a tight fit but easy to put in.

                            Yeah. I knew it would drain the key battery a bit quicker but not that quick lol

                            • I find that the Kessy battery needs to be replaced every 12 months or so. at least it is easy to do at home, the instructions are even in the manual.

                                Fair enough i suppose as it has to do a fair bit of work when i think about it. I've put the slightly fatter CR2032 3v battery in as it should last a bit longer than the CR2025. Let's see if i can get 2 years lol.
