Hi lowie,
* when I put about the cut bumper I was going to upload the picture kev has already put up but forgot so here it is
* By cone washer, I meant the blue cone spacer on top of the front hubs [below the upper wishbone]. I have taken this off and replaced it with 2x 1mm spacers/washers underneath the upper wishbone, and 1x 1mm spacer/washer above it.
* anti roll bar lowered at the rear - picture attached, means that a slot has to be cut into the blue hinge pin brace at the rear of the car to hold the ARB. This helps to make it more fluid over the bumps because the ARB is more progressive.
* I found that cutting the rims made it easier to fit the schu. tires so I can get them more consistent each time, and I think it also makes the rims flex a little more without compromising strength.

Timmy, when it says to drill another 57 hole in the pistons it means to drill a second hole in the piston [on the opposite side to the first] which is the same size as the one already there.
