Thanks for this info.
I have my car up on stands tonight in preperation for the spring swap. I tried to put a 17mm wrench on the 2 bolts for the A-arm, but I can't get it to budge. Are these a real bugger to get off or is something wrong?

What do you mean by the A arm 9grand?
Do you mean the upper or lower one?
If it's the upper one, then you will have to get a longer spanner for more leverage. I think the manual say to retorque it back to 76 foot pounds.

Yeah I ment to say the upper. I gave it a squirt of liquid wrench and an extra grunt on the wrench and they came loose.
This is going to be easier than I thought. Cool!

I will be lowering my car this weekend with the kg/mm race springs. I was wondering if any of you have modifed the bump stops at all? I thought it was usually a "must do"when lowering the car?
