Solid beam mounts
#6
What are you going to be using the car for? Daily they're kind of pointless as you won't see the gains unless you're beating the f*ck out of it. I have them fitted to my otherwise stock HDi as I needed some mounts and they were kicking around. It has actually made it a bit more understeery, you have to poke it with a stick to get the back end out. But then you just point the front where you want to go and floor it. It's just less "lazy" to hoon.

On a car set up for track use however, they're epic IMO. You can turn in harder as the back end will hold a tighter line without the passive rear steer, then power on progressively from the apex and you're away.. The flipside is it makes the car less forgiving at the limit and when it lets go, you have to be on the ball to catch it, especially if you're running bigger wheels with less sidewall.
Welding and fabrication projects undertaken, contact me for more information.
