Right jus got my meisters on and am gonna set them up at work on the aligner for track use...on my coilovers before i set the front toe slightly out (if i find the alignment sheet il post figures) they were more or less parallel.

The front camber i set to -2.5 ive gotta say it handled very well considering all i have is the coilovers no other suspension mods

all i wanted to know is what settings do you guys use for track? i want to try something else on these just to see if theres an improvment at all. il post figures after ive set them tommorow, perhaps MODs can make an alignment thread as a sticky so people can post which settings they use?? just an idea i think would help alot of people :)....

watch this space...

U can't by any change get a photo of the top mounts on ur car? I'm slightly confused on mine, had the top camber both put in same on both. Wonder if that's right? Had it tracked and all straight but while accelerating car proper pulls to the left -.-

Sorry if I hijacked the thread.

test and tune george, you may well like different settings to others,
but as a base nice to gauge usual set ups people tend to use..

wouldnt b a bad idea to have a set up chart thingy like we have with the dyno leaderboard, so for future reference it is easier.

There is some adjustment in camber on the bolts that hold the shock onto the hub, so the camber can be very different both sides using just the top mounts. A 4 wheel alignment is whats needed to set up camber if you dont have a gauge to do it.

Found this out today when i was setting it up got one side to -2 and the other side with the same adjustment to top mount is -0,2 so thinking i might have to adjust at the bottom of the shock

just loosen off the bolts on the bottom of the shock and pust the top of the hub in do it on both sides and it should be fairly even then
