Tommi Makkinen, the car you have is the old "Magic" edition of the Trinity Revolver. The standard Switchblade front end should mount on the car with not a lot of extra work. Call Helger, they are the UK importer for Trinity and should have the parts or be able to order them from trinity for you. As for set up. I have the 2000 Spashett Ed. Switchblade and normally run with -2 degrees caster, no toe (in or out), camber adjusted to keep tire wear even. My car has dual dampener tubes - I use Trinity's white grease on the tubes. the heavier the lube you use, the more steering you will induce into the chassis. tires - purple fronts always, grey rears on carpet, pink rears on asphalt (tarmac).

Hope that helps.
