mine sucks but im used to it, i reckon other people would hate it haha, kinda low, rear coilovers and same height but adjusted differantly, alightments well off due to hicas being worn, front cambers differant on both sides due to 4 bent arms, (thanks dave + curb!) and ive never checked and of the rebound settings ha. keep her country!

it is on my immediate to do list though once i have some money itl be getting aligned in some way, and the camber issue sorted out, and extra lock spacers put in of course!

Exactly dump the car on the ground till its completly undriveable and then just get used to it i.e. rag the tits of it

Don't be talking shite........ A drift car is all about the setup....... As the saying gos powers nothing without control......... Which couldn't be a truer statement........ If your going in narrow minded like that ya'l never get anywhere.........

Or you could look at it from another point of view, instead of the car being the main factor, maybe its the drivers ability, a good driver should still be good with a badly set up car!

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
