it was a shame to see the wagon end up like that - as you say it was immaculate. The straightest 120Y wagon I've ever seen.

At least he's done something about the suspension for the new car! even if it is cut 120Y coils and lowering blocks, the lower Cg and camber will definitely help! Personally I'd suggest upgrading the springs front and resetting the rear to increase spring rate and to do away with the lowering blocks.
