adjustable front & rear anti roll bars, makes a huge difference to the car, massive advantage to be able to adjust them as you race.
the brake bias is on the dash ,rhs of steering wheel

These cars look a bit like the lotus carlton to me...squat stance and mean looking :evil:

dont envy you the job of rewiring it to be honest. Did you make up a wiring diagram as youworked stuff out for future reference??

Cheers Steve :thumbright:
used the old harness, chopped all the crap off it that had been added over the years, grouped & labeled the wires in terms of position were they were in the car & took lots of photos before it was removed, but was still a complete headache

I went to Bathurst years ago - epic racing - nothing like it in the uk , closest is the touring cars maybe down the Hatch but the atmosphere was times 10... incredible. Was Ford vs holden commodore GM when I went . The tracks layout is great , aussie blokes with stacks of beer and every time a chick walk buy they flip a score board up - real MCP stuff. Peter Brock was the man to beat when I was there. I had such a blast there the night before and the race day I can hardly remember but obviously the weather was A1. The Aussies love 3 sporting occasions;

1. The Melbourne cup
2. The Ashes
3. Bathurst

Depends on your sport for preference.
