I've just had the geo done and bushes seemed ok just bought coilovers and driveshaft spaces and looking into getting steering box raised.... what else needs to be done?

Cos I already had the springs handy and still haven't decided which coilovers to get yet.

I dont have coilovers, but i have some poly bushes.

To be honest I wouldn't recommend poly bushes on anything but a track car, too harsh on broken road surfaces.

You'll just need adjustable toe arms and steering rack spacers and everything will be perfect and also give the correct geo ranges.

GaryB - nowt like paying for 2 geo settings

si2k - i have polybushes, as long as I keep the damping on the coilovers on the softest setting it seems fine to me and the roads are bad round here too.

Yep, not ideal, I'll give you that but I had the polybush work booked and the coilover plan fell through. As it would need geo'ing after the polybush anyway I thought I may as well get the springs chucked on in the meantime.

Would have made perfect sense to have coilovers fitted at the time of polybushing but time didn't work in my favour on this one unfortunately.

But yes, now I'll have to pay for coilover fitting and geo'ing again when they go on.

(Assuming I ever manage to decide on what to get).

In the mean time, the car feels great now with the polybush and Eibachs. Corners really flat and it's starting to feel like my old Elise.

Plus it's lost that 4x4 look that always annoyed me.
