Worried about how your car is handling? Want to know what you can do to improve her around corners and make her hug the road? We've organised a tech night with the guys at Fulcrum Stafford to show you what's going on in the world of suspension.

Event: SAU Tech Night - Suspension

This event will offer members the chance to get their cars up on a hoist and look and what's going on underneath. Minor issues such as slight wheel alignment tweaking and small adjustments can/will be made for free by the guys at Fulcrum but this is really an opportunity to take a good solid look under your car. Ideally looking at between 5-10 cars to make sure that everyone gets a shot. If you're going to the sprint day, you may want to make sure that you don't have suspension issues.

Location: Fulcrum Suspension, 46 Webster Road, Stafford

Date: Thursday, 2nd May 2013

Time: 6:00pm - 8:00pm

Cost: Free!


Requirements: This is a member only event. To attend, you will need to let us know in advance and have your member card ready.

We ask that attendees obey all Road rules.
we don't want people racing up and down the street or general Hooning.

Remember you are representing the Club, so we need to be on our best behaviour.



See you all there!
Tony

Excellent Carl. See you there!

Not everyone's car can be up on the hoist and this will be due to time constraints really. But it will give you an idea as to what to look out for.

Yeah mate understand about not everyone can have there car up on the hoist. I don't mind if mine doesn't go up at all, was just saying.

Damn living in Nth Queensland :( Glad to see stuff like this happening but, Props to SAU QLD team, one day we might venture up your way. Its on my to do list I swear :P

Thanks mate. A bit of appreciation from time to time doesn't go astray. :)

All good mate. Was just making sure that everyone was one the same page :)

Personally, I'd prefer if people going to the sprints had their car up there. Would offer some peace knowing that everything is ok. :)

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
