hi guys just tought i would let all you cefiro loves out there that my cefiro got a feature artical in thois months hpi vol.71 pages 16 to 22... im pretty stoked as the picture in the mag look great compared to the pics i have.

the car is in brissy and i love in perth so i brought it about 3 months ago and thought b4 i send it over to W.A i would get a apexi pfc and avcr fitted and was going to be happy with that. this is was 2 days after the artical was done and the workshop who fitted the pfc threw her on the dyno in a rush and forgot the set up the timing and bang bang bang went the bigends and put metal filing all threw the motor destroying everything. so i took it to a very trusted engine builder and there striped it back to the n1 block and sent it off to get machined and now this is what i have down to it.... (after the artical in hpi

    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
