Parts arrived 2 days ago, so yesterday I started to assemble steering knuckles. When doing so, I installed new ball joints.

This is the picture of T3 steering knuckle vs OEM knuckle, the difference is huge in thickness of material. Only thing that's bugging me, I don't know which hole to use to connect steering beam, the one closer or further from the ball joint.

The inner hole should give you more steering angle, but it wall also make the steering harder

inner for sure.
bigger angle, faster steering.

Thnx guys, will mount on inner hole, but there will probably be lot's of skimming tires on inner wall

My car is now ready for season 2010

1. Steering knuckle - didn't manage to mount it on inner hole, but this is also good. Steering angle has inceased vividly, steering feel is far better and column is a lot quicker and more direct



Upgraded steering angle



2. R&P 4,778 by Weir Performance - beside installment of this fine upgrade, I also changed barrings inside the diff and installed bigger crush sleeve - big thanks to Will!

3. New steering wheel - OMP Corsica, 350 mm, depth 95 mm



Old Toora SW is up for grabs (on right)



5. Rota RB 8 x 15 which I painteed in red with polished outer part
