Happy belated buddy :)

Now order my new toy ;) :D

no worrys mate, if you find another 'cheap' solution lmk! and don't say 'raise the car' :P

What about these camber kits?:

I know they're on Ebay, but the company have a regular website too. Shipping to the UK is $40, you need two kits (front & rear)

If you read further back in this topic i did highlight these

They won't work anyway. Can only recover 1deg +/- of cam, which is no good when i am 3.5deg neg cam

Hi Tony,

I have searched and searched... Seems options are somewhat limited..

Mat, What the price for the Cusco items?

Mat, looking at it further it appears only to allow maximum of 1deg +/- adjustment....

So back to the drawing board

Hi Tony,

Thanks for your efforts today, very impressed with your knowledge and willingness to teach :)

Here are some solutions i have been pointed to,

Little tip..

For rough texture spray it from a big distance. Don't spray across. Make sure the item is flat on the floor so the paint sits/lands on the surface. Going in closer makes the texture smoother.

Experiment till you get the texture you desire.. Oh, use primer builder spray for final prep before wet and dry!

Just got back..

The car is too low, simple as that Tony corrected the Toe, but the camber is over 3 degrees out! (all round!) So need camber adjusters. Couldn't budge the camber at all, no movement what so ever.. It was funny seeing it trying to get on the ramp :D

Anyway looking for some camber adjusters then i'll be back to Tony to get it right...

I TOLD YOU it was easy.. :winky:

Hehe..

Always makes me chuckle :D

I'm still trying to get to grips with oversteer, In the Wet that is

Sways are added to my list of 'do's :D

Basically I think they tighten up both ends of the suspension so there is less flex, which results in less body roll being felt in the car, you really notice this when going round hard corners, but it's also noticable with any steering you do, you'll have minimised roll with the coilovers but the sway's just increase this reduction (does that make sense?!). I think because there's less roll the back end is more likely to jump out (oversteer I think) as the chassis can't absorb as much any more since the sways keep things under control.

Mat C has the best explanation of all things suspension related, it's all a bit confusing for me!

Makes perfect sense. I would do it, but not if it will comprimise ride quality. Loving mine at the mo B)

Taken from another forum, this is

heres some of the best ones

How lucky is that donkey tho..

My Knowledge on sway bars are somewhat limited. What do they do?

Guys, i'm booked in to go see Tony this Friday. Hopefully it gets on the ramp!

Will let you know how i get on.

I notice my steering is stiffer when started up from cold. Which reminds me, power steering fluid could do with renewing!

£4k! I wouldn't even bother, sell the car and get something else! I think for extra £1-2k more Supra twin turbo conversion surely!

I hate speed bumps, but i avoid them at all costs.

I now have few scrapes on the sills, and engine sump. Yes its frickin silly low!

Only problem with the Battery bar is if you fit a after market Battery, say Optima or Oddessy, it won't allow for exspansion..

Hi Guys,

Priced the axis wheels in the States..1460 dollars with tyres..very cheap..

But the shipping is costing nearly 1200 euro!!!

Can you tell me if the lenso s73 wheels are the same..They can be seen on the topgear website..

Cheers,

Eddie

That is very exspensive shipping. Try Bax Global, Menlo Worldwide or DHL Worldfreight.
