Got my custom made front and rear sway bars yesterday
heavy duty 24mm solid front and rear from Industrial Springs (Aurora springs) here in Adel.
$518 for both
will get some pix up soon

they each weigh about 10kg or even more bloody unexpectedly heavy when you look at it.

Nice and darker yellow in colour

need very stiff shocks at the back and still need new springs at the back and geting coilovers for the front

205/40/17 tyres will do, most likely kumho's most people seem to recomend them,

and then i believe all that is left is ecu
i think i have so far everything that i need for the car (except wheels) to put the whole interior together, and engine bay, and exteriour
the whole fuel system (except gauge for the FPR does anyone have a good one? that i can buy off ya) and maybe some more braided hoses and fittings,
need the injectors cleaned and flow tested shall be done in a week or so
need to take the IC piping and both strut braces to get cromed

well im sure well find something that is missing along the way but so far looking prty good cant wait to drive it

my brother has left for europe yesterday so ill be looking to finish the whole interior of the car in the next month n a half,

finish the alarm and sound and central locking and take out passanger seat and see whats wrong with it the back is vobbly so maybe the screws arent screwd on properly, put the door trims on and get the cluster printed

outside
get the strut braces chromed, get the injectors cleaned and flow tested, and maybe start installing the fuel system

so than all that will be left is clean up the engine
suspension incl sway bars
brakes

and then the ecu
