Re: GC Suspension & Diff Uprgrade
Best parts really depends on ur budget and extent of upgrade.......as for the diff......any decent diff needs to be shortened....... Unless u go for something weird like an S2000 or something

Certainly sounds like a really solid foundation no matter what purpose the car is used for

How is it a bolt in upgrade?
Cordias are fwd....unless it's an important of some kind or ur actually got ur eye on a starion.....if it's the latter, then getting the car and stripping it will be viable as they have more useful parts than just an engine/gearbox

I'd mount the turbo behind the rear axle personally.......u can run the turbo at a lower temp on the same boost as a high mount turbo, making it more efficient...
Ud also eliminate the amount of heat generate right next to the brake master cylinder, and ull retain alot of the engine bay room too
