No trouble used mounts, gearlinkage, driveshafts from the ZR just had to remove one bracket that was spot welded on the passengers inner wing to mount the PG1 gearbox mount

Re: Track R8 214 Sprint
Went over to Avo Suspension today and picked up a set of these which should help the handling a fair bit (i hope)....

I went for a set of R1's with B&G adjustable top mounts which are the entry level race units with single bump/rebound. I didnt see the point of paying another £1000 for the R2's with Independant bump rebound adjustment as i cant image i would be able to fine tune them enough to get the very best out of them.

Re: Track R8 214 Sprint
I 've always found that thicker front ARB gave me better turn in but when you use heavier duty springs it often negates the need but you lose the suspension compliance. I always found that the ZS 19/20mm ARB gave enough control for the road as it seemed to help the turn in.
On the track it may be different.
