Has anyone got the factory stock front castor and maybe KPI figures for an R33 GTS-t please? I have made some adjustable parts for my front suspension and want to add a bit more castor than stock, but I now suddenly realize I don't know what the stock figure is.... Thanks.

Every car is different, R33GTST caster is usually around 5 degrees positive without adjustment, so don't stress if yours is 4.5 or 5.5. I had a standard car this week that was 3.5, but it had stuffed caster rod bushes.

:( cheers :P

Thanks for the speedy reply. I have made adjustable castor rods from stock ones, and adjustable bottom arms, I was going to add some more positive caster. I intend trying 7 degrees each side. Centering is a bit weak as it is, and more caster should add dynamic negative camber too.

Appreciate your feedback, cheers.

Nice brakes :P

I made everything myself, front brakes are from a Porsche 962 Le Mans Group C car, on AP fully floating discs and home made bells and brackets. Rears are Aston Martin DB9 calipers on AP discs and home made bells and brackets. Pics are around in ftp://ftp.chriswilson.tv along with other bits and bobs and the engine in build. I work in the race car game, so get hold of some useful bits and pieces for my own projects, from time to time!
