Fix That Understeer!

[someonestolecc]

Nic. I'm gonna guess that your locked/shimmed diff isn't going to help. I'd also put an aftermarket sway bar on the front...

I'm confused, the rear lower control arm bush doesn't adjust toe. Toe is adjusted at the tie rod ends, same as the front.

cheers

Sorry, I should of mentioned the car did not come with HICAS.

can someone please confirm where the toe is adjusted on the rear wheels

Toe is adjusted on the toe arm. If you dont have aftermarket arms, you will quite easily run out of adjustment if the car is low as there is not that much adjustment to the standard cam.

I am going to have to get under the car and take a photo I think

Thanks Salad

Understeer has lest the building...

I did a full day of drift and the car turns in so much better than before. really happy with the results.

So what did you change?

[CEF11E]

added 8deg of castor,

and 1.5mm toe out each side

[salad]

What were the alignment settings before?

[Beer Baron]

good to see you 'manned up' and went with the 1.5mm toe. it make a massive difference to the front end feel. i love it. perfect for drift.

[CEF11E]

What were the alignment settings before?

they were not settings as such... just all over the place.

and yes the toe on the front is the bees knees

[Rolls]

What's the tyre wear like with those settings ?

[CEF11E]

just put a new set on so i will let you know in 10,000 k's

[evil_weevil]

so camber adjusters....are they stock? Or did I miss it somewhere?

sounds good Nic - Im aiming for similar results - I have similar set up, but different car!

[salad]

No stock camber adjustment on the front. Stock rear adjustment has a range of about +/-0.25deg

[Beer Baron]

tyre wear will be terrible. but do you want handling or tyres? you can't have both.
