Post subject: | Fitted the KAD arms today |
Took me about 2 hours to do the LHS and then once I worked out how to fit everything 5 minuites on the RHS!! Koni adjustable shocks, KAD adjustable support, KAD arm, KAD disk, KAD rear brake pivot, racing donuts, hi-los, hard poly bushes. ![]() ![]() ![]() I've still got to fix alignment and degrees etc - probably wait until all wheels are bolted on. I might have a go at the KAD rear sway bar tomorrow. ![]() |

Apart from costing lots of $$$$$ What is the main benefit you are striving for in the use of these? Lighter car = faster car? Lighter unsprung weight means better rally car? There great and i would love a set, but dont see the benefit of them. Im curious |

What kind of power are you putting out? ++ 160HP? Looks like fun... hopefully you've got something pretty special for the FRONT disc brakes where it all happens in a Mini... not too much weight hanging around at the back when you're hard on the picks on the circuit. That's what it is, yeah? A race car??? |

Yeah GT i was refering to the alloy swing arms as in the title of the post. Is there any real benefit of these in a road car? |

If you were chasing the last gram of unsprung weight I thought that turning the shocks the other way up would also be on the list. |

Why not do it cos it looks awesome and itll definitely add value when it comes to selling. Just because its different doesnt mean its bad. |
