Adjustable track control arms in, set, tracking/alignment done, height set.
Still to do:
• Swap out leaking power steering rack (3.6 turns) for 2WD Cosworth quick rack (2.4 turns to full lock)
• Synchro in 4th
• Replace 205/50/15 budget balloons for 195/50/15 Toyo Proxes R888s
I've also got a little rubber boot spoiler I might try & replace the current with tomorrow.

Few pics taken this morning for advertising, something has caught my eye so either this or the Porsche 944 S2 has to go. Both the exact same money, exact same power, 944 is the better investment but I would hate to see this go first.

It's an absolute beaut, I'd far rather see the 944 go than this wagon!
Good luck either way!
