Got home this afternoon - damn achilles tendon forced me home early..... just back from driving to the physio. WOW! The brother had the rear ARB bushes and droplink bushes changed and what a difference. No more noise, sounds like a new car. Only noise now is the sound of the engine when I rev hard. I'm loving it.
Also I've got an induction kit on order from funkyproducts..... its an stainless intake pipe with k&n vortex type filter and all for only 90 quid! It looks the dogs, check it out here
