ARB's are a very easy install...... What are your intentions with oversteer? there are loads of ways to induce this. always prefer more oversteer than understear but would like a bit more tail happy as well as stiffer ride Well the ARB's won't stiffen the ride only control the transition during weight transfer... A less aggressive means to apply oversteer is by the Geometry rather than a more direct mechanical change. well when i say stiffer i mean less roll round bends. had the geo set to the -35 settings of here. I see....... Well if you find she's pushing then you will have to dial some of the rear camber out, probably about 30' maybe more.

To see members going to such lengths is so humbling...... Thank you everyone. As you would know by reading the thread the surplus money is destined to a charity of my choice and i would like to explain my choice. The word "charity" is almost a swear word at the moment and thoughts this money would go to save the "Lesser spotted tree frog in Borneo" is hardly a just cause. But it's not..... All the money will go to Cancer research UK..... I have good reason for this since my mother died last week from cancer and the very topic has touched many members here past and present. Other charities like the McMillan or the hospice or even children in need are desperate for money but it's my opinion is to invest in prevention for the future rather than relief for the current victim's. It's a hard call but i don't want my children to suffer in the same way my mum did...... or your children, or theirs

I'm really sorry to read this mate and i do know how you feel..... My heart goes out to you and your family tomorrow, all i can say is chin up and be as proud of your dad as he was of you!

As you know i wasn't there due to a bereavement so Tony Barber calibrated your car.... he's a good lad and know his Geometry..... I'm pleased the team looked after you and the cars handling as it should.

The GS chassis is highly adjustable so it's probable it's ebbed away over time. Fundamentally Geometry is a modifier so if the car has OEM positions we would manufacture new ones to suit your needs.

You know what....... i have looked at this "make a post page" several times over the last week or so and every time i cannot express my feelings..... I'm..... speechless!

I am so humbled by eveyone good wishes...... Thank you team LOC!

With this idiotic knife culture the uk has today, i'm just pleased you walked away!...... you can get a phone anywhere but there's only one wozza.

Sorry to read about your accident...... if the wheels buckled why not just fit the spare and access things from there?

I am incredibly priviladged to have such friends here offering support and best wishes... i tip my cap to you all and thank you from the bottom of my heart. The poem's have really helped..... Actually i cried like a baby and i really needed that emotional valve opened, i must read like a right soppy sod but losing your one and only mum is something no one can prepare for.

Thank you everyone for the kind words and the pm's. My situation is something we will all go through.... it kin hurts!! but nevertheless it happens, my real scream is that cancer killed (murdered) her and that really hurts because it wasn't her time to go but cancer decided it's time to wrench mum away from us and i cannot punch that disease to vent my anger... i want to hit it Cancer research offers some hope for others and i will support that passionately but for now?........ i'm so, so low and miss my mum.

I couldn't be with her during the dieing moments for that very reason.... the image would stay with me forever and i couldn't cope with that. My wife and daughter stayed with her and i salute their strength and thank them for that... do i regret not being there.... no! Oh peeps reading this thread what do you do.... there's no manual on how to react to a family member dieing, your on your own, do you hide or scream or whatever?...... it's just horrible.....horrible.

"You are among friends here" i know that's why i exposed my inner most feelings at the worst time in my life. I will stay focused for cancer research but......... I'm so, so sad now Geoffers, for weeks i have told mum all will be ok and the hospice is just a rest for her and us.... and i lied all the way. I have never lied to my mum until then...... In the chapel of rest i apologized and explained myself, i hope she understood i was just protecting her from the fear of dieing. Sitting next to and holding the hand of your mother opens areas of your mind you didn't know existed.... through my tears i asked "what" am i really looking for?...... sympathy, well yes i suppose, but i have a proven desire to combat cancer despite current events. She was only 65.... and murdered by cancer.... It's not fair...... I'm so sorry for her.

St Francis Hospice Berkhamsted Hertfordshire is 100% supported by charity, it's a stepping stone with a guiding hand..... I'm crying as i type!!! I don't know what to expect from this thread or even to answer but i do know we need to irradicate cancer so that others don't suffer the same pain. Prevention is the best way forward..... the hospice and so on deal with the fall out not the cause, i want to prevent the cause. Maybe i should log off?..... i'm so desperately sad i don't know what to do......

My mum, Carol Ann Bones died at the no age of 65 thanks to cancer.... In truth i'm all cried out now but this does highlight why i'm so passionate to support cancer research, so that your mum, dad or whoever doesn't go through the same pain as my mum. This thread> http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...t=0&start=0 was opened by Bazza bless him, forcing my wife and myself a day off, as some may know i'm never off. As this thread expanded i watched in disbelief how fast members paid for us to be at the xmas bash, i'm truly humbled by this....... The point of this post is that the surplus money donated goes to cancer research and although this won't help mum, it might help another mum or dad or whoever, so please make that pledge. Here are my words in wim-forum yesterday, it just sums up the reality of this silent killer we call cancer. ............................................... Thank you for you best wishes...... It's odd why anyone would post such a statement like "my mum's dead" but in the visible world it just helps to shout out loud and have friends shout back with words of comfort... Despite the warm wings of friendship i have never felt so sad, this truly is the worst day of my life. I didn't have the courage to stay with mum as she died but today i did stay with her in the chapel and talk about our past, her pain and the future, through the tears this really helped me to gain closure. Cancer really is a dirty word, my mother didn't die, she was murdered by this poxy, indiscriminate time release bullet that slowly dissects it's victim of life, am i angry, yes, can i do anything to help? no, and that's what hurt the most. The true hero's here are.. St Francis Hospice Berkhamsted Hertfordshire Mcmillan nurses home support My wife and children you ..............................................................

Lovely pics..... well done wozz and Niraj, on that note Niraj where you been B)

It's an emotional gesture to the odd one out

Everyone say "Bless" :)

Have a nice one fella....... wherever you are

Calibrating any car beyond it's design expectations always has some surprises, that's what keeps me on my toes. This season with the rocket has been fantastic and today with our "set-N-test" with a closed shop worked really well because you were able to communicate so vividly how the car responded, so with a few tweaks we was there in no time. I never test a track car myself because i feel it's the driver i listen and reply to but today bazza decided otherwise. So with the business park locked and the car calibrated to bazza's requirements i was invited to passenger the performance on our 1/8th mile strip and some twisties. Well what can i say?........ It is possible to get the Himalaya in your underpants, on corners you can have a "G" chin that makes you look like Popeye sucking on a straw, as for stopping performance....... bazza can i have my nails back, they are embedded in the dash. The rocket....... is one scary car!!

Thought you might like that one mate, That was going to be page 1 of the calender followed by this one for page 2? pic by Steviewevie. I'm really not calender material, my mum says i'm a war baby because people would look in the pram and say "Whoa!"... and they still do

That's horrible..... I look like i'm sucking on a wasp

The images would make a nice 2009 calender methinks ...... but not the one of me though B)
