It's a four wheel alignment that really sharpens up the handling (turn in etc). It's just using the same settings as what prodrive use on their conversions.
Speak to John at RASP. He has the equipment, and specialist knowledge about steering and suspension systems.

Evening everyone,
I have just posted a request for an exhaust in the Fiat Coupe owners forum and had it deleted by one of the moderators for having the title in caps lock
Hoest I'm not joking

evening all! i have an update on my car braking problem
Went to RASP today for an oil and filter chnage, plus had my defis hooked up at the same time to the sandwich plate, all working nicely. Brake judder is due to one caliper loose! Have to have it taken off next week and have one hole re machined so a new bolt can be fitted. Going to have the whole lot set up with new camber * suspension settings at the same time.
i have been having some understeer problems at the front end, had this a while now, dosent feel nice with the front end drifting before the back end so i thought i would try an experiment!!
went to Bush and had the front wheels transfered to the back etc. took it for a road test, first roundabout i came into reasonably fast like a normally do, at this point i would be expecting the front end to understeer. No way, as i entered and steered, the back end spun around like i had hit black ice, nearly shat my pants i can tell ya, was almost a 360! anyways just about controled the beast. at least now i know the problem lies in the rear tyres for sure, they just cant grip!
Going to fit either Toyo or yokahomas or Eagle F1's like i allready got.Need to sort that this week. Do we have any Tyre contacts in Grimsby for a good deal? Ive been quoted about £115 fitted for the Toyo's.
What do you think?? Cheers for now. Steve
P.S. RASP are organising a track session day at Cadwell on November the 10th, full day with classroom and pace cars on hand. Scott at RASP has ogonised a deal for about £110.00 inclusive. so far there is about 25 booked with only about 4-5 places left. Im going to have a go so shout them if you fancy it too

Evening all, hi to any new peeps, HI LEE, its OK ON HERE, tell em to ram it on the italian site
4 wheel alignment is worth getting done, only costs a few quid, usually just a bit more toe in, i think, I'm not sure what is adjustable on standard set up (camber, castor etc)
Driving down to Wales tomorrow, taking the plunge and having a cage fitted, so car will be away for a while not driven it much anyhoo, had a quick blast out to RASP earlier to day, just blow off the cobwebs - there was one in the engine bay too
Cheers
Dill
