Good day to you all


i have a 94WRX and i use it for a few track days and i am thinking about fitting some coil overs.

However, I would like some advice before I spend my hard earned.

Once fitted and set up properly, whenever i adjust the ride height will i have to get the alingnments done again??

Obviously what i am looking for is to be able to drive my car to a circuit on a sensible ride height, and once there drop the car on the coilovers and harden up the damping. but if i have to reset the camber every time i do this it will become too much hassle.

any advice welcomed.

Thumbs up

peggy at work,

if you were to set the ride height for road use with -1.5deg camber all round, when you drop it for the track the negative camber will increase equally (maybe to -1.8 for a 20mm drop) all round which is ideal for the track anyway. when you raise it again the geometry will return to normal. the toe-in at the front will also as you drop it but again, only very slightly.

stu.
