Heya people, im new to this forum as iv only just got my Sie Sporting Abarth.
I use it as an every day car as I have a minifor a weekend car.
Atm im just lookign for some advice on where I can get some new engine mounts from? The rear one seems a little soft to em and is now killing the exhaust flexi pipe.

Another quick question is... why does the seicento roll so much?Is it due to soft springs an hard dampers? Im lookign to reduce the roll and lwoer the car slightly, so was wondering if anyone had any preference on springs or spring/shock kits? Any help/ advice apreciated.

Rear engine mounts are a known problem, so much so that there was a shortage of them in the uk a week or so ago. I believe thet are available again, and an easy fix.

Suspension is a matter of choice, but with the stae of the roads these days and speed humps I wouldn't be going lower than 40mm less, and even then, -30mm is more comfortable for day to day use.

Cheers

Yeah im thinking about going down around 30mm as I dont want to change the camber too much and im mainly looking to reduce the roll without changing the bars.

Can you get polybush engine mounts? And if so anyone know where from?
