Thanks Barber

@Dave - he can have it if he gives me what he got for his demonstrator ;)

If you're building a Kobra I think you may need a greater drop. the gun metal grey one I saw at Nubodi was running 19" IIRC and was on adjustables to get it as low as it needed. They definitely look better low.
Measure up after fitting the body as the Eibachs are only 35mm drop - not a lot - think you may need full adjustables


Scott,
Damn good call on the drop. I wanted to conduct all the mechanical stuff with the old body in place but your guidance is key to that thinking. I will look at adjustables in that case. They do get varied reviews so I need to look at a mid-market solution.

Thanks again

Dave

Still think it was too cheap.
How about a DNA Speedster next?

Thanks guys - she's gone to Brighton.

That speedster looks nice - exhaust suggests it's a rebodied Boxster? In which case it will be to a 356 what the MINI is to the mini - not sure thats good...

Edit - those are definitely boxster roll hoops

Hmm..be interesting to see it in flesh - the renders look good and we know it will be top quality.
