Ive noticed that the drivers door is dropping down a fair bit when opened and there is a large amount of play when fully open.
Is there any quick fix that can be done to correct or improve this?
Congratulations to vtecmec for winning May/June's Lude Of The Month, with his DIY Turbo BB1 build.

Thanks for the info
I might just have a look for set of spare door hinges and see if they are any better than whats on the car.

I assume you've checked the bolts that hold the hinges on? They are unlikely to work themselves loose, but you never know.
