basic question

New Nissan Alloy S13, R32, R33 Adjustable castor rods.

A MUST HAVE!!

what do they do?

[dAVE]

my guess is they adjust castor :s ??

assuming im right, your best bet would be to hit google.com.au and search for "castor" or "adjustable castor" and see what you dig up. A search on here for castor may also bring something up too. A bit of hard work I know..

caster is the angle of the suspension from the road surface to the strut top! increasing this will allow the wheels to find centre better, and allow better turn in! will increase the resistance of the turn but feel alot better! there is more technical info out there, but that should be ok.

an example is nearly every drift car, if you watch the in car videos you can see the speed of the wheel moving when the driver lets go round a corner, this is mainly caused by the amount of caster dialled into those cars!!

Right Craved, you mean the *fore/aft* angle of the suspension from the road surface to the strut top.

I read what you wrote and I thought you were talking about camber for a moment...

But yeah, Google taught me heaps of sh!t I was afraid to ask about. Google is good. Use it.

yeah i guess i didn't make that bit clear! noticed with my R33 that the caster rods also increased toe in, which is good for straight line but not the best for corners! will have to find a way around that!
