im finaly doing it getting it lowerd altho not what i wanted but powerstation dont do H&R so it looks like its just guna be eibac.getting springs fitted 4 wheel alinement and bumpsteer mod.
what do people reckon to this set up.

 

I had the Powerstation Stage 2 set up fitted to my RA a couple of weeks ago.

Totally transformed the handling and turn in - 100% delighted with results.

Did you go for 60/50 Richard?

 

Doug - I have no idea!

But I think the Stage 2 conversion includes Eibach springs?

I do however, have a very comprehensive print out from Powerstation showing the settings:

Rear Axle
Camber -1.53' left -2.05' right
Individual Toe +0.03' left +0.05' right
Total Toe +0.09'
Setback +0.02'
Geometrical driving axis +0.01'

Front Axle
Castor 20 +3.24' left +3.11' right
KPI 20 +14.51' left +15.01' right
Toe out on turns -1.50' left -1.34' right
Camber -1.49' left -2.00' right
Individual Toe +0.03' left +0.03' right
Total Toe +0.07'
Setback -0.08'
Including angle 20 +13.02' left +13.01' right

 

Shorty:

That is nearly what you want!
While there stretch the plastic about £100 and have them fit a whitline rear anti roll bar, and if you can a whiteline Anti Lift Kit.

This will add considerably to the car's final performance. It will be great!

To my 2 hill climb friends: think carefully about 60/50...I would go back to 50/40, my original choice (and Powerstation's too).

Will do this next year if i can.

Sorry to jump in Shorty....Richard..whats 'setback'?

 

Doug - sorry no idea what setback is.

I dealt with Curtis @ Powerstation - he will be able to give you the information.

Sorry I can't help.

Richard

 

I don't know either..

shorty - I've got Eibach's and had the geometry done to my bugeye, without the bumpsteer (at Powerstation) and have been very pleased with the results - although I'm now considering the AST upgrade as I think one of my shocks may be shot.

One word of advice though: The Eibach's don't quite fit a scoob 100% (defo newages, can't confirm classics), so expect some occasional creaking when you go round corners sometimes. You could ask Powerstation to wrap the springs before fitting them - they did that for Pippyrips and he seems happy with the results.

 

Setback is the amount that one wheel may be aligned behind the other wheel.


Andy

 

true - once they tape wrapped the springs everything was fine

 

You do learn something new every day!
Thanks Andy.
Hope Time Attack goes well.

hello,

since I fitted the black alk, I have 3'50 (+/-) left castor and 4'00 (+/-) right castor. is it ok or should the values be the same?

sorry for hijacking the thread

 

That is Fine.

I guess that's what you wanted to ask on MSN just now.

Off to bed now anyway, got some winning to do tomorrow. lol
(dreaming again)

Andy

 

yes it was

I thought the values should be the same.

 

that is virtually the same, it's ten mins apart. for something that's non adjustable that's pretty good.
