    Default Steering/suspension setup

    What way do ye set your cars up and what do ye drive?

    At the moment ive my front camber 2.5 drgrees neg
    Cant measure the castor but i know the wheels are forward coz they rub the bumper at times.
    I have the front toe/track toe'd out about 3mm dont know what that is in degrees.

    The back is all nearly " 0 ", toe'd in slightly.
    Cant remember the rear camber but its more or less 0.

    Im driving a 180sx and at the moment i find the car grand to drive, i like the way it " self center's " from lock to lock. and it seems to turn in no bother etc..

    Wonder is there any need for more aggressive setup when im happy with it

    Is the car just for track or for road use?

    -2.5 front camber is a bit excessive for road use as it'll cause very poor handling on bad road surfaces.

    For road use I'd normally set them up with around 1.5 degree neg front camber. A small amount of toe in on the front and around 7mm of caster and for the rear, a small amount of toe out and no more then 1.0-1.5 degree neg camber.

    For track use the settings can be made more extreme to suit different driving styles.
