just seen another lada owner on here so i thought id chime in and say hello too!
heres mine:
standard suspension, apart fron the balljoint spacers and trimmed bumpstops. welded rear diff (and yes its my daily driver) and an old Lancia 2ltr twin cam with Guy Croft head and weber carb under the bonnet... good for surprising people at traffic lights!
anyway, hello!
rob.

Alright boss! Fancy seeing you here! They're fine, a bit loud, kind of a dull drone, but alright really. Not too bad in the wet, but surprisingly bad in the snow, you go and stop ok but steering is useless, and that was the case before the welded diff went in too.

Ah yeah I had those before the special tracks. The rear diff is great, I honestly don't know why everyone doesn't do it!
