Nobber is my nick name mate!

Yeh I've been searching on MIG this morning. Will have another look shortly I think.

I can probably move the Tie bars down some more without it being too much of a problem. This will cure my PAS issue for now.

as for the tie bar p/s is it possible to move the tie bar?
or get a non p/s steering rack and remove the p/s?

dont think u should have trouble finding uprated springs, ak on mig, plent of companies do them

i dont have the answer to any of your questions, you car sounds cool the only thing that concerns me is you signed you message "nobber" :o

Well the engine (c20xe) has been in for a couple of months now and has done nearly 700, almost trouble free miles. But it still has a few problems that I need to sort out.

My problem is I have lost the motivation to sort them out and am looking for ideas of companys or people I could take it to for them to sort the problems.

The problems I have are:

Needs uprated springs to cope with the weight, can't lower the ride height though.

Needs the PAS sorting. The current pump catches on the Tie Bar and shreads the belt. I'm thinking the only way to sort it is to use an electric pas pump off a Saxo/106?

I also need to mount the AC pump somewhere and get a belt to drive it and probably a bracket to hold the pump.

Anyone any ideas?

Cheers
