    I can't remember TBH Pete.

    I seem to remember that the first couple of sets they sent out as the test had a couple of teething problems, and they were also the not so good V1's, not the BR series. I had a set of the BR's on the S70, did loads of track days, and never had one problem.

    Milltek Cat-Back : BC BR Coilovers : IPD ARB : AP Racing Brakes : M56 & Gripper LSD

    me too but I think that coilovers have improved a lot of the last few years. We need the numbers to get the discount

    What did your sponsors say about our group buy, Adam? Did they indicate any minimum numbers & discount banding?
