As for a cage, a custom job is probably your only choice unless you make another fit, ill bet they are like rocking horse sh*t to find one off the shelf these days.
hmm ok then, im thinking ph 2 gtt coilovers up front, can it be made to work in a typical pmt fasion?
Yeah i reckon they will go on one way or another.
Few bits for 11t's on ebay france like mate, silicone coolant hose kits & boost hoses etc if your feeling flush
Who's got a phase 2 11 Turbo then Adrian? :smokin:
cough cough a friend ;) cheers brigsy will take a poke about, in no big rush, got a few engine tweeks to do b4 i get to bothered by the brakes and susQuote:

u dnt wana sell that weeeee beastie
you can make coilovers pmt style ,there should be
some pics in my profile :agree:
could you not fit gtt hubs struts and topmounts? cant see much in your pics bud
gtt hubs would be the same i think ,so there is no point fitting them .Quote:

would they be the same as ph 1 or ph 2 gtt hubs? then i could mate up with the coresponding gtt suspension
Gtt ph1/2 hubs are all the same, the difference is in the bolt spacing on the strut/top mount.
Iirc 11t is similar to ph1 strut? been years since ive seen one so may be wrong?
so if i used the right combination of top mount and strut all should be fine? thats banking on the fixing holes for the tophats being the same
I feel a bit of Spookdev Tweeking comin'...:p
Got much on sat spooky? ;-p
the rear bushes in the trailing arms fail more frequently on these than on a gtt. beware.
ph1 5gt coilovers with corresponding top mounts will fit straight on.
omp does an adjustable strut brace which doesn't fit without mods, they also do a rollcage but not sure if it's still available....
Easy fix?Quote:

Lets hope it doesn't fall apart on me :p
My omp brace fitted fine, as far as im aware no mods had been done.
Rear beam bushes went on mine aswell, hard to find a good used axle!
How different are they? Are the bushes the same as the gtt ones?
good stuff, be cool to get it decked and running with another 50bhp ;-p then I'll get sum pics upQuote:
