Enzio has put everything that you need there, only thing ill sugest out of own expierience, make everything square on a alighnment mechine, then if you dont like a sertain handeling part, most drifters will be able to tell you how to counter it, we have an alighnment bay, and i do the drift cars personally if you need any help
Power is nothing without control,
Control is not fun without power.
Traction is over rated. :twisted:

Boet next time ill take you out for a proper thrash, Sorry about the power steering issue. Steel pipe sorted now and replaced.
Yeah i just realised i need to locktight EVERYTHING
i have solid engine and gearbox mounts, i didnt want any roll, sway and or rocking.
as a result the vibration must be loosening things,
So im busy locktighting all the important things.

OK, So for practice tonight im trying the car out with a proper suspension setting for the first time.
Sorry BG, i was gonna bring my car to you, but i got one of the polo cup track guys to dial it in for me as a favor.

So what i previously thought........ Thought.........thought were my suspension settings....... actually wernt.
I was way off. WAY FUXXING off

What i had was.

Back
Left -1.2 camber, 9mm toe out
Right - 0.9 camber, 15mm toe out

Front
left -5.1 camber, 8mm toe out
right -4.9 camber 3mm toe out

i have no idea how thar car even drove.

Was cool to set it up right now. With propoer camber digital guages. What was very cool was being taught some interesting methods to check toe acuratly.
Next item to buy has to be a longacre digital camber and caster gauge. What a awsome piece of kit
