modified suspension

[thecolonel]

well, I've tried anyway (fitting for Gamma but would equally suit  Beta)

units came from a subaru WRX STI (had to lay out £25.00 for a s/hand set)

That looks fairly close to the beta rears.

Oh hang on.....you've added the bottom lancia fittings to the scooby units haven't you?

[thecolonel]

Yes, seemed the easiest/cheapest way to get what I wanted, they'll be seam welded before use.

[hongkongphooey]

Great work. Did you just use guesswork for the sizing of the scoob units or were they just at the right price? 25 quid is seriously cheap!!

[thecolonel]

I sort of reasoned that as the Subaru used a similar engine and was a similar weight
that the units would be close enough to the Gamma, then I decided that at  £25.00 
there was no great loss in  "aving a go"  I knew the s/hand units had blown inserts
but still £25.00 for Cusco adjustable coilovers well........

well, suspension now installed

cusco/gamma struts, golf front inserts, cavalier rear inserts (actually cavalier fronts fitted to gamma rear)
