    Been digging out upgrades

    So as I'm keeping the 855r I don't want, I have been looking around the workshop for parts.

    So far I have found:

    19t (rebuilt but leaking exhaust seal) or k24 or 15g (second 19t and k24)
    Forge actuator.
    2.5 stainless rip (actually found 2 top and 4 bottom pipes)
    Bailey 2 piston dv
    Uprated rear arb
    Ipd rose bearing drop links
    M66 with brackets linkage
    Brass linkage bushes
    S60r clutch and flywheel
    V70 roof bars
    Many many silicon hoses
    Blue, white injectors
    4.4 ECU
    Choice of titans (2 sets)
    Volans
    Eibach springs (jamest5r cheers buddy)
    Koni yellows (again James)
    Ally wishbones
    Meyle ball joints
    Polybushes for wishbones
    Poly lower engine mount
    Conversion parts for me7 to fit s60r lump



    I have a choice of brakes

    Front:

    350mm cross drilled front discs on big piston 4 pots
    350mm using xc90 calipers
    320mm st calipers (under titans)
    316 original calipers on brackets (under titans)
    312 brembo 4 pots (under titans)

    Rear:

    S60r rear calipers 330mm
    Porsche 911 4 pots 308mm
    Xc90 rear calipers 308mm (Oblark design)

    Braided front hoses

    I think I have the making of a decent car
