Who for Handling Set-up ?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Anyone got idea's / opinion's / experience of where to take the motor to get the handling set-up ?

The car came from the land of the Rising Sun with the Cusco's fitted and since owning it I've fitted 18" s and an ALK and still haven't got it set up properly, and it's totally killing the handling especially on the roads round here

I'm wanting to get the coilover settings softened (I assume you can do this with Cusco coilvers !? ) , and the Geometry done.

So any info would be appreciated.

Cheers

I just picked up my car today from Duncan @ Hypertech in Bonnybridge.  What an amazing difference in handling after they worked their wonders!  The car feels so much more surefooted, tighter more responsive handling, less body roll, nice and predictable.  It's now sooo much fun through the twisty bits.

They are really friendly and give good advice, do the job properly including 4wheel geometry setup.  I can only recommend them as I haven't dealt with anyone else in the handling department, and will only be using them after good experience.

scotty, 18s + Cuscos on a classic has to be a recipe for a sore arse mate. Get the wheels changed for some nice lightweight 17"s straight away.

I Drove down from Aberdeen to Falkland Performance, as they were highly recommended for my geometry set up after the Teins went on.

The drive home was like being in a different car all together........Great stuff.

when i got my ast coilovers and my whiteline rear anti roll bar and anti lift kit i took it to kenny brown in hilington out near glasgow airport . had 18s on the car at the time but with the set up i was wanting for 1/4 mile and track use they wernt any good so had to go back to my 17s and he spend 2 days setting the car up right he works on rally cars ect and what a differencre the car is now for fitting all the stuff as i was to lazy to do it myself and to set it up he was under £200 well worth the money if i was setting another car up i wouldnt take it to anybody else plus he aint to far away from girvan for u to travel.

All of those recommendations above are extremely good - they will all do you a very good job.

Used Extreme Motorsport in Whitburn - John and George will do you a good job, know what they are doing and have the latest geometry gear.  They are whiteline stockists too if you need any stuff.

St3ph3n - It is real hard mate,but thats the way I like my suspension.I wasn't too sure at first but finally got used to them. I did have 22B replica BBS lightweight alloys before but decided that I wanted something a bit different.

Cheers for all the help lads, just need to get it booked in now!!
