    TBH, fine tuning like that only really comes into effect once you are running the same tyre every time. If your using part worns, some 3 months old some 3 years old, with 40mm differance in width and any brand from linglong to toyo, your not going to be able to set the car up right, as every time you get in it itl act differantly. You can only set it to a base setting, go from there and hope that just tyre pressures well sort it on the day.

    The camber i run is not from the hubs them selfs, its to get the max performance from the hubs

    here lad my car is set up the way i want it and it feels perfect for the way i want to drive it it goes where i want to put it! im talking about people who spend a hell of a lot of money on every adjustable arm and link avalible and wouldnt drive a nail trough a soggy turnip!! whats the point im not saying im a fantastic drifter, but when ur at our level you do not need to set up the car the same way as pro drivers just get in and drive the fucking car sped ur money on seat time!!!! then when you can acccually feel every move the car is makeing then start thinking of setting it up the way you want it to feel not the way all the top lads do it because thats what they do doesnt mean it will work for you

    Correct Seat time!!!

    Tho a basic set up and check over is a good idea, most cars as standard have some adjustment

    ye im not saying have it arse ways but no need to spend a grand on every arm possible! a set of rear camber arms to keep rear tyers wearing a bit better then drive the thing!! and spend the money on tyres fuel and entry fees untill u need to set the car up to a pro level

    In this your after saying exactly all any driver wants........ "it feels perfect for the way i drive and it gos where i want to put it" Sure what more do ya want......... What im saying if a car isn't doing what you want it to do then its a waste of time ya might as well stay at home cause ya only annoy yourself........ The essintials ya need: Good set of coilovers with ride height camber ajustment and dampining:ajustable castor arms tie rods and camber arms and toe arms...... And a hicas lock out or eliminator........ In my eyes every car should have these and yes it is possiable to drift without them but its an awful lot easier with them................
