Default Got a few handling parts fitted

Hey folks got a few handling parts fitted yesterday this included f and r arb, f and r drop links, spec c steering rack and super pro track rod ends to my hawk sti

I asked for a fast road geometry setup and I'm no expert on these reading but don't believe it is I've attached the two sheets I was given can someone please confirm?

If they are not the right readings does someone have the correct ones?





Thanks

Steve

Looks ok for a road car but I would've wanted more front camber.

Prodrive said more is good If you can do it but it's not adjustable on standard suspension is it?

None of those parts would allow for castor adjustment, so you're stuck with what you've got.

Possible castor mods are:

Anti Lift Kit
Custom control arms
adjustable coilover topmounts

Maybe some others, I'm not sure.

I've got those three, and have approx. 6.5 deg of castor - can't run any more really as I'm already destroying my inner arch linings at the front!

There is a sweet spot relationship between camber and castor, if you do start piling on the castor you can back off on the camber. Chevron set my car up with 1.5deg neg camber at the front after I gained all the castor - but with a more standard castor setup you'd want to run more than 2 deg camber I think.
