A used part that is a temp fix, yeah, no problem. A new suspension for quality ride height and comfort, I don't skimp out on that stuff. I am not trying to say cheap stuff is bad, its just not me. I could be wrong, but I don't think I have seen much MG stuff on ebay.de or locally.I've become a broken record and keep saying the same thing! I've done it cheap and it's never been right! Namely tires for me, budget rubber gets the name 'ditch finder' for a very valid reason!

Smitty_Works Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 You guys are funny with the tires. I don't go cheap with tires. I will usually get Yokohama, Falken, or Hankook. Just depends on how I really feel like gripping the road. On a good note, I will be on vacation starting this Friday (holiday as some may say) for 24 days. Gives me time to work on the car, the garage, and start prepping for K series stuff for my 4door EK. I am thinking I will throw the suspension on Friday morning.

Krzys Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Look forward to seeing that! Especially the K swap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Absolutely agree on the suspension, I've had the mgzs on mine with lowering springs and although I got a good set up it was teeth rattlingly hard, now have the meisters and even though it's lower the ride is so much more comfortable. Look forward to seeing the new lows and the k swapped ek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty_Works Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 I just had time to throw on the fronts today. Will do up the rears tomorrow. Here is just a recap. Feel free to check the build thread. These are no where near slammed or as low as I want to go. Will update that once I make adjustments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
