The code still works for the BRZ(GT86) only. All other applications are finished for this offer.

will you be doing this group buy again ,, needing a new set up for a 2005 blob wagon soon...

Edwardjr 23 June 2016 01:29 PM

Is there enough interest in another GB? Would like a set!

Andyd1888 23 June 2016 01:39 PM

Still waiting to hear back myself . If not getting a set of pedders .

boggissimo 23 June 2016 02:57 PM

Er, you can still buy them, it's just that the discount is 10% now, not 20%. So works out at £720ish.

I know that i can still get them , and with the forum discount aswell , but they have none available and was also talking with Jerrick about another group buy but have yet to hear back.

Edwardjr 23 June 2016 03:04 PM

Yup, all sold out on the site at the moment!

boggissimo 23 June 2016 03:06 PM

Ah right, maybe I got the last ones a few weeks ago...

Edwardjr 23 June 2016 03:25 PM

Nice one . Keep us updated on how it goes 👍

boggissimo 24 June 2016 12:31 PM

First impressions are great! I have set all four to 10 clicks from soft, and it is comfortable and responsive. Only done 20 miles so far, so can't really say more than that at the moment.

Glad to hear you think they are ok!

Sounds good then so far , keep us updated once youve got some more miles on them bud . Still trying to get some info on when they will be available again but not having much luck ...

The acid test is when SWMBO gets in! Actually I'm pretty confident she'll be fine. The HSDs I had before were set to as soft as they could go, and were far too stiff and bouncy. On the MeisterRs I am starting with 10 clicks and have some room to manoeuvre if she thinks they're still too firm :)

Andyd1888 24 June 2016 04:08 PM

Just heard back from Edwin at meister r , its going to be around 8 weeks before they have any stock in ,

Interesting you think the HSD'S were too hard, as they were the other brand I was considering before I bought the meister r's.

Yep, the Meister Rs are firm but fair (on 10-from-softest), while the HSDs were uncomfortable even on their softest settings.

The missus had her first ride in the car over the weekend and was happy: 'They are still firm but much better' and didn't complain at all! :luxhello:

Went to get geo setup done and they couldn't free up the rear toe adjustment nuts, so have to go back in a week after adding some more penetrating lubricant to the nuts and see if they can adjust the rear end. They also didn't want to add as much negative camber as I asked for, but at least said I could come back and they'd adjust it for free if I didn't like it at the factory settings.

What settings did you go for Stuart?

I took along these settings, copied from bonesetter on an old thread on here.

Then they were tweaked from there. I was lucky in that I found a good garage with a lot of experience in setting up cars (they've got their own race team).

Thanks Stuart. I think I'm going to go for -1.5 deg of camber on the front, with as much castor as they can get and 0.0 toe. On the rear, if they can get the toe adjustment freed up, I will try it at 0.0, and -1.0 deg of camber. The alignment place said there was no factory spec for camber but I'm not sure if that means they can't adjust it.

Either way, I went out to the garage last night to adjust the ride height, and could only get the locking rings undone on two wheels, so I have a wonky wagon at the moment! Have to either go back to the lower setting on the ones I did adjust, or find some way to undo the locking rings on the nearside wheels. They've only been on the car a couple of weeks so I wasn't expecting them to be jammed already :brickwall

Have you contacted the guys at cyberspeeds? They've been really good when I've needed advice.
But I haven't tried to adjust the height on mine (as I don't want the hassle of re-tuning the geo setting) so can't offer any advice. Sorry.

Yeah, I've emailed them and sent a PM to MeisterR on here, but no reply yet. The C-spanners were getting rounded off and I didn't want to chew up the locking rings.

Isn't it more hassle to buy and fit a roll-centre correction kit than to change the ride height and re-do the alignment? I am trying to raise my ride height to avoid needing roll-centre correction!

boggissimo 26 July 2016 02:19 PM

OK, Edwin sent me out some replacement spanners and I got the rings freed up, so I have raised the ride height back to a more normal setting. Will be getting the alignment re-done on Friday.
