Cool

The Bump steer mod is not to everbody's liking some people have had it done and then had it taken off whereas others love it. I was thinking about it then discovered Prosport in Stockport they do a 4 wheel geometry setup based on figures from Prodrive for fast road driving.
I know quite a few people who have had the same settings done on there car and they all love it. I had mine done last week (MY99 UK Turbo) and I am very impressed, the initial understeer I always used to get has now been iliminated the car feels alot more nimble. Cost £88 all in cheepest mod you will ever do.

If you are not to far from the stockport area give them a Bell.

PS basically bump steer is when the wheel steers when the suspension goes up and down, it should in priniple not do this but some cars are setup with bump steer!
