Is this a trick question? :roll:

I didn't realise I need to align the headlights? Isn't it a simple removal and replace like all other cars?

Just in case there is no one interested in this Friday's run. You could join the Gold Coast group in their run on Saturday night. Here is the link and details.

Not sure if there is any fixed Friday. I suppose if there is enough interest, it can be any Friday. Your run this Saturday night should be a good event.

I actually just had a thought about that. Are you DEFINITE that "0" means fulls soft, and not full hard? Experiment by turning it the other way, to 40. Seriously, I'm certainly not trying to sound like I know everything, but the setting you have on the rear is even harder than what I would have it for track use.
I've never heard of the brand of coilovers you have so please be cautious, as I am genuinely concerned.

Waitaminit.... are you saying I'm the Viper? :(


Hey Andrew
I have wound the rears to 5 from full hard? and still have to drive a bit further (I've only gone around the block a couple of times so far), but I think "soft" is hard and "hard" is harder lol. I'm going for a fair drive tonight so I'll let you know tomorrow.
