Quick question; are all going to be done on the day as there is quite a few and if some are having Setup changes will there be enough time?
Would like to have my set up changed from standard to the prodrive set up? Or better if possible?

Ps if my car is lowered 30mm....do I need to buy camber bolts? I only use it on the road. I don't even drive it aggressively. Cheers.

J... Ps it's a classic wagon.

As said, they have two Hunter set-ups. Even so, It'll be tight?

Not wrong, can we base this then on a first arrival first serve?
If this is the case I will be there at 6am!!!

On a more serious note it may be worth finding out who want just sime checks/adjustments and those that want a bit more done, this may allow for the day to be used more effectively and either have one ramp for the more involved and other for the simple checks/adjustments.

Just a idea before I get shot down in flames!

On the last RS Focus day the did alignment on 22 cars in a day. With that in mind i'll assume that 20 imprezas will be pretty much the limit for the day. i'll check back with Damien. Cars will be on a first come first serve basis with the ESOC cars taking priority.

Looks like weve had a great response from this already and it will be a superb day for everyone.

I've put money aside just in case I need a full geo so I'm looking forward to it. Just hope my wife is not working that day as it means I will have my daughter.

Hi Jay, camber bolts are required for adjusting camber on lowered cars yes.

I'd say for what they cost they're very much adviseable for gettin the most out of the setup on the day.

I'll defo be there. More a spectator if anything. If there's room/time ive been thinking about lifting the front back up to fit my splitter. My driveway isn't very friendly.

Not majorly important though just if there's time. But I'll defo be there.

I will most likely pop down for the social side of things as im waiting to get my new springs fitted first then get the prodrivre setup done, but its great to know there are some good guys just round the corner from me who can probably help.

I ideally want a set up just for normal road use and to preserve the tyres as long as possible. It is a bit late now to order camber bolts so I will see what the settings are on the day, and as I only work 10 mins from them I will go back if necessary.

Cheers.

I won't know for sure untill Friday evening. The adjusters for my coilovers are seized solid, and after trying all weekend to free them the only option left is to dismantle them, cut off the old rings and replace with new ones... which i'm doing Friday afternoon.

And my camber adjusters don't fit.

And the car is currently up on a ramp without a cambelt

But other than that.... it's looking good
