172 cup with spax rsx



  Clio 172 cup
Thinking of using demon tweeks to hopefully set my car up right as I'm quite close to them , my 172 cup has the spax rsx kit with the full rear coilover and ktec top mounts also has powerflex arb dog bone and steering rack bushes , also refreshed wishbones ball joints track rods and ends plus new ps3s all round ! The issue I'm having is going into bends the steering goes all light and very sensitive almost like it wants to turn more than what I'm giving it , also I have to hold the steering slightly to right hand down to get it to drive straight which also makes it very twitchy in a straight line . It's been back to the guy who set it up a few times and all I get is "can't find anything wrong with it ", I've had the front end jacked up and on both sides and if I lift the wheel up you can see the top mount nut lifting ever so slightly on both sides and this is before you feel the tension of the spring , not sure if there's suppose to be any movement because of the solid mounts but any help would be much appreciated and any recommendations for specialists close to North Wales which don't have a 5 week waiting list as I found out when I got in touch with my first port of call blink Motorsport
 
  dan's cast offs.
when you say the guy who set it up, what's been done/checked? just tracking up camber as well? not much left it can be so shouldn't be hard to find the issue.

also have you changed bottom arms or just bushes and ball joints?

also shouldn't be any play in damper shaft/top mount so that needs looking at for sure.

Thanks for everyone's help all sorted now thanks to prima racing the car feels amazing to drive now there was a problem with the way the front coilovers where setup and massive difference in getting a proper geo setup on a decent system in mm rather than degrees . I know there's mixed reveiws on here about the spax rsx but I highly rate them
