JM - I would ignore the prodrive settings and go with what you have but with a tad more negative camber at the front

I'd go for 1deg camber if the car is going to do road work predominantly, or 1.5+ for track work.

I'm with Andy on this - 1 deg would be spot on :thumb:

Alos, you can't get any more than circa 1.5 anyway with standard struts! As thats what I have and I am sure the bloke said thats the max I can get!

I now have 1 degree of camber on the front and all i can say is what an amazing improvement. I have so much more confidence entering corners now. A real joy to drive.

Many thanks for all your input. :thumb:

Top stuff mate, glad you are a happy bunny :D

It is by far the best and most cost efective modification you can do to transform your car! problem is, most people think that just chucking money at suspension upgrades means the car handles better, which is soo un true!

So what settings did you end up with, apart from front camber?
