    it is awesome!! I was surprised how well the IRS works. Even with this trashy suspension, the turn in feels a LOT better than the 850 on yellow konis. Steering with the throttle is a bonus too

    I was thinking the other day about your t10 projekt... basically on will You can make your 850 rear engine RWD and still have weight on the front... that is awesome!
    I wonder how that is going to grip and drive, deffo want a ride in it when done. I'll travel to the UK just for this




    Btw, I bought a wrecked 850 a bit more than year ago with the intention to convert it to rwd. It was rolled over a bit, but looked unexpectedly good! Rails were straight, subframe is straight, the rear suspension was bent, but that didn't matter anyway. Even the roof seemed ok(ish).. perfect for a track car. Chickened out and bought the 960 instead

    Welcome to the fold, nice project you've got going, does the 960 go better with the T5 lump fitted than it would in an 850?? Love the mod and always wondered if it was quicker or about the same.
