    No power steering to get more power.

    was it for an electric steering setup mike? didnt know they did a dci with manual steering,, mines got the standard 1.2 rack that was used when it had the 1.2 electric steering setup at the mo, seems to have quite a nice feel to it without it being electric any more

    rear camber shims???

    or loose the arch liners, its the wrong way to go about things changing suspension geometry just to stop rubbing, you only do that if its needed ie you need the extra camber on the rear forwhat ever handling reason
