Understand that, just looked like stock swaybar, and was curious.

Can't wait to hear a full report once you can get out, and give it the beans.

 

Nice, well I guess I'll keep my eyes on the parts... Don't really have the spare change right this second as my car is going to Fortune this week for a set of custom coilovers. I'll see how the car does after that and decide if I want to shell out for the R56 trailing arms.

You mentioned it was a bear, what was the difficult parts to the install? Any advice?

 

lol i saw someone neg repped my mini for saying i had a bunch of douchey parts on my car...of course they didnt sign their rep...too damn funny

 

Well a couple of weeks ago i finally made it out here to San Diego again...did a 3k road trip in about 3 days or so...i finally got a chance to really put her through her paces with the new trailing arms and honestly she behaves like a whole new beast...its pretty much now like a JCW GP MINI hiding under OE clothes...i can roll the corners at a higher speed and can stay in the throttle longer plus the response is much improved and the ass end feels alot more planted than before...got to really test it out on the trip from san diego to the Anza-Borrego desert which is in eastern SD county, going from sea level to a couple thousand feet in elevation and then back down to sea level was a good test and she did very well...me and a couple of my friends decided to venture out to the Galleta Meadows which is a series of metal sculptures which is out in the desert, a local artist would make these then drop them in random places...some pretty impressive stuff considering the size of them...from 15-20 feet in height to hundreds of yds long in some instances...here are a few pics from that day...

Here is an update...she is pending sale to a new owner...have to make room for my new one which is on a boat bound for the US! After 8 years and 205k miles i think its time for a new toy and project

 

After that much time, effort, and money into it, I'm surprised you're willing to part with it.
