Project Freeze My Ass Off (rear Poly Bush's Astra G)

MikeS

I do in the astra though m8 cos it is so twitchy compared to a vec

I found it under steering all the time

evocarlos

i dont drive mine hard enough to experience that 🙂 dont even turn the tc off as it never gets set off with the way i drive
i have to admit now i got the whiteline RAB wound up to the 1st hole its way better round islands at the rear it used to be twitchy at the rear with it on the outer holes like CS tell you to set it up
but then i have just had new shocks new springs new bushes and refitted the toe in shims and new tread so the back end would feel better lol
fronts to get the same if it ever stops fkin raining

and about 6 coats later shiny an protected ready for PVS thats just the boot lid tho 🙂
g3 - megs Ultimate Compound - megs techwax 2 - autoglym instant show shine - Autoglym Ultra Deep Shine - autoglym extra gloss protection

and i think i found the best way to paint the spoiler on the boot lid it came with lol

Matt
