I was wandering around after bolting the car up and could see Paul pacing back and forth nervously as if he was awaiting some bad news from a doctor ;)

Thankfully Pausl 33 all held together.... in fact apart from a radiator hose, we didnt have a single problem all weekend with the cars.

Some cars were clearly running more boost than they should have been, when you can hear it detonating 30 feet away, its time to retune it :)

I asked if we can get Dyno Dynamics to run the shootout next year with their rage in a cage set up and it looks like it could happen. Hope so because then theirs no shop politics even tho i have a great deal of time for Ivan i still think independent operators should run big show shootouts in a locked program.

This is why a never take up the offers to take my Dyno to shows.

Red17,

I was a little worried when the Speed limited kicked in, but was only running 12psi so knew it wasnt pinging. Have to remember that when changing ECU one still has limiter fitted DUH!!!!!

320@12psi is not that bad ,time to improve, have to catch paully..................................................are there any bank managers on this site. HEHEHEHE

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      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.
