They're not all standard sizes, I've found someone in the US who has sourced some of them, I have a damaged tensioner I found cheap on the way to dissect to look into the feasibility of DIY repair.944crazy wrote: Sat Jan 10, 2026 3:46 am Great build thread mate. Look forward to seeing more progress.
Wonder if the tensioner could be rebuilt with new seals sourced from local bearing/seal shops.

Its quite amazing the change from the Stock S2, the massive surge of torque out of corners coupled with the new suspension make the car feel much more modern driveability wise but still with the 80s rawness we love.ROB III wrote: Sat Jan 10, 2026 3:31 pm @Bergerac
Thanks for the observations on bushings and KW installation.
I've read similar results from others and your confirmation just adds fuel to the fire for me to pony up the funds to do the same. Shock technology has obviously progressed to prove control and lack of harshness can co-exist.
Thank you
If I was going for a more track oriented car, I would definately look at Intrax or MCS and poly bushes.
