no it had new arches about 4 years ago by the previous owner still good too, must of done a fairly good job.
i have a good set of gti rubbing strips to go on, yeah the grey ones need to go dont match the black
bits at all.

That looks fantastic sean! I also think the GTi rubbing strips is the way forward. Glad the manifold turned out to be worth the money, keep us updated.

IMO that looks fantastic as a gti rep, much better than the r100's
The side strips would finish it off nicely.

The paint work looks mint.

LOL - no.

I drove it down to my new gaff, 1 mile away, stuck it in the garage and have since done nothing else. Been too busy doing new house stuff.

It drove well, although maybe just a tad too low, and the indicators and rev counter dont work Hopefully I'll have it sorted and MOTed within a few weeks

l thought i would try and double up the rear anti-roll bar, seems to work well.
The rear end feels much tighter. Also coloured the MG badge on the steering wheel

sorry pics are crap but i didnt fix the sceond arb to the arm, its basically a standard gti arb fitted as per normal then a second gti one attached with spacers as pictured and jubilee clips clamping it together.
l chopped the ends off the second arb just short of the drop links so it doesnt interfere with the drop links of the original arb

lt really has improved the handling wish i done it earlier

Sean, if you ever want to sell that GSi, can I be top of the list. Seriously.
