Default Geo Question...

Getting full powerflex polybush all round, cusco front and rear ARBs, cusco front and rear lower brace bar, and cusco front upper strut bar fitted next week... Curious what geo's people with similar mods have.

I also have the Mugen front caster bushes if that helps (I'll dig out my current settings when I head upstairs in a minute)

Car is my 'daily driver' in the sense I use it evenings and weekends, but starting to do trackdays once a month, soon to be every other weekend if things go well at work !

Appreciate knowing what mods you have, and then what geo's your running with them to get the most from your cars

Well...whatever you are looking for, I'm not sure this is the place to get real world results from those (cusco) parts that you have.

I have no idea what ARBs are, so I can't answer that question fully.

Basically, my current setup (which I love for the street) is the UK Spec alignment for caster and toe, but with camber set at -1.5 to -1.8 front, -2.3 to -2.5 rear.

A setup such as yours should make the car easier to drive over bumps, and will make the car want to straigten out the tires after a corner, so I would tweak your caster settings accordingly, but I don't run Cusco parts so I have no idea how that specific setup would react. Sorry, but good luck with your setup!

Quick update on this one

https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...ic=669913&st=0 <-- Car had all the bits fitted and geometry done.

ARB's I believe you guys call 'sway bars'

I'm back off to the track in April with the car and I'll put it through its paces and see where we end up. Should be brilliant to refind the limits, going to invest in some driver training after ive done a few sessions to get some guidance of those who know what they are doing
