Cool

Just had bumpsteer removed at Powerstation. WOW, what a difference It has totally transformed the handling of an already competent car. Oversteer all but eliminated - even in the wet. Pleased? Oh yes.

Thanks to the lads at Powerstation - top job, and the best £117.50 I have spent for a long time.

Was that you at power station yesterday (Thursday) with the rather nice black wagon. I was the one of the two wet fish hanging around while they sorted my car.

As well as other mods, had the Bumpsteer sorted.. IF it was your car there today, I believe we are the only people this week who he has managed to get down to 0 bump steer.

Huge difference, turns in nice and a lot easier to provoke oversteer..

Fair point well made. I had a bad day yesterday , and I stand corrected.

Mark - Thanks for the message. The Mintex are going to be spares as I had some Tarox pads fitted at Powerstation!!
