After the test fit from the phone, I had to bend and modify the UAS one anyway and it still doesn't clear my wheels properly at full lock.

Thanks again for the photo and link mate! Here's how the DIY ones turned out, no issues at full lock as yet: http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/448613-r34-gtt-brake-improvement-without-breaking-the-bank/?do=findComment&comment=7777134

Thanks!

I have Cusco camber arms and an ebay HICAS lock bar.

Fronts are running -3 camber, rears around -1. Toe slightly out and slightly in on the rear. Standard caster adjustments.

I don't actually remember the exact settings as it was done manually by my tyre guy who doesn't use a printer.

Hey man, is -3 degree the max you can get out of the Cusco arms? I have my own 33 GTS track car/build and I'm starting to destroy shoulders now I've sorted the chassis rigidity and ride height all out. It'll only get worse when I put semis on. -3 Is probably a good start currently all front arms are stock.

Yeah, that's the max I could get.  My tyre wear seems to be pretty even across the surface, but then again, tyre wear is mostly determined by the amount of toe you run.

Yeah it's not wear i'm worried about, purely grip levels cheers.

It's been a long time without you my friend... 

Quick update here since a few things have changed in my last update from 2016. 

Speed trap analysis for my 1:35 lap taken from RaceChrono:

At the end of 2016 I took a role overseas and moved to HK in January 2017 for at least the next two years. I was able to have one last drive through some of the best roads in Victoria with a mate before deregistering my car and storing it till I return.

I actually miss driving it quite a lot, especially after seeing all the recent track activity. I will be back and I hope the z221s mature nicely over time like fine wine...

      Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like

      A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.

      Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.

      Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?
