    Ben at Kaplenkhe got back to me, and said he can do 3 or 4 sets. So including me, that's 5... one of us might have to miss out for now...
    Could you specify which option you wanted and we can go from there so I can confirm with Ben?


  • Shout out to @heavy_dd I have collected alot of parts for the bacon but this falcon anti sway bar takes the cake ???
  • I was going to just run the entry level 'elite 550' , on thier website they mention its good for na and forced induction but I'll probably double check before forking out heaps of cash, don't mind paying the money for a better one tho because it can always go into the next project hahah

    @heavy_dd I may just focus on finding a suitable motor first and once I have that, if you have something i need I'll hit you up

    @robsta77 And @Major Ledfoot (and @heavy_dd if you end up being in too) - they do two different versions of the mounts, I was just going to go for the cheap ones. Do you have a preference?
    @GingerNinja - did you order yours with Luxe Steer? And are you using standard style springs?

    @240 I'll wait for a reply from @GingerNinja before indicating a preference.

    I was thinking of ordering the mounts from Kaplhenke, are you still down for a group buy?
    If you are doing a group buy, add me to the list.

    Also if you're organising a group buy, you need to get in touch with Ben and work out an expected completion date for X number of units, and price per unit including shipping.

  • 240;134392 wroteDo the Alfa seats bolt straight in? I've read that they point inwards (towards the transmission tunnel), is that true?

    Only reason I haven't done it is because they won't match the back seat, but maybe it's still worth it...
    I dont think its as simple as a direct bolt in but i know theres not a lot involved .
    theres a bloke who made the rear alpha seat work in a 240 it was a lot of work though
    not sure on them pointing inwards ill have to look into that , most seats do tend to point in a little bit even if its not noticeable but if it does point in heaps that might look abit funny , maybe @heavy_dd could share more light on this and the mounting .
    ideally i would like matching 240 fronts but they just dont seem to hold up over time from what ive seen and then if you were to find a mint pair im sure they would be pricey .

    i get torn which direction to go with the car, one side wants to go full euro trash just something nasty and mean looking but then its such a clean car the paint ,panels and interior are perfect i cant bring myself to ruin it ... if it had terrible paint it would be rat as fuck and ridicules looking by now ........... maybe i need to buy another one and have one of each......its the only logical option right ;)
