Looking on the Kam website it's 10kg front and 8kg rear.

Ok for track though?

From what i've seen on here with people who use AST's, they go for 450lb/in springs which is 8kg/mm. 10kg would be roughly 550lb/in, stiff! I'm not sure how stiff you can go before it gets a bit much. What you think @NorthloopCup?

9kg shouldn't be a problem. Is that front and rear?

Jesus! Also, i think Tony's one may have been this.

I'm about to have a Valeo put in mine soon, so we'll see how it goes 😂

All these failed under track use i guess?

It did work a bit on my brother's Megane wheels, they were powdercoated though so it was a bit tougher. Paint should strip right off in no time.

Only enough to take some paint off, don't want to be taking chunks out of the taper. Lightly does it.

I take it the Valeo ones failing are just defective ones and not down to incorrect fitment? I've not heard of many failing tbh. 2 failing must be pretty unlucky.

Dremel with a sanding/grinding bit or an old wheel bolt with a few cuts ground into the taper and whizz is round with an impact gun.

Ahh right, i'm North Warrington.

Whereabouts in Warrington?

Need to take the paint off them mate. It happens quite a lot, but simple enough to fix.

BC's with 8kg/8kg setup would probably be your best bet for less than £1000 yes. There's plenty of choices for seats in that price range, just have to see what fits best for you. I have the OMP Targa steering wheel, definitely recommend it! Swap to 15" wheels, better handling and tyres are...

Mine is on the 98Ron map and i have ran it on 95 before and it's been fine. I wouldn't do it all the time. Filling up a few cans on the way to the track is hardly effort is it.

Yeah, i'm a Momentum99 man myself. Garages everywhere. Loads of Shell garages around too for Vpower+

Now made by Sparco.

I agree, but he's not using T1r or PS3's it's R888. Starting with 22 psi would also be bad you're right. I'd suggest 27 cold to end up with about 33 hot.

Anyway, it's tyre temperature that's the key thing. Pressure is used as a "tool" to get to the temperature. 90-100c degrees is what you want across the whole tyre on an R888. But that's going a bit OTT for trackdays.

34 psi cold, you on drugs! They'll be at 40+ psi before you know it.

Sounds very metal on metal.

Toyo say anywhere from 28-34 psi hot for a car around 1000kg.

Going with lower springs will automatically give you a bit more camber, so that would be the first thing to try. Then get the alignment done again once lowered. Max out the camber bolts really.

You need more negative camber basically. As the suspension is rolling to one side it'll be getting more positive camber leading to sidewall wear. A set of springs and some camber bolts would be the best place to start.

You need a Rupes Bigfoot machine, would have done that in 1-2 passes with 95% correction. What machine have you got now?

I'd like to give it a go at some point. I've watched them being done and have read the manual a few times.

4 cambelts! All your cars?

No. Be a lot easier if the engine was out the car.

Maybe your sliders now working it's giving you a softer feel? Whereas before they were seized so the caliper didn't move much giving it a stiffer pedal.
