Still having stability issues

You have over one degree difference in caster. That will cause a pull. Which way is it pulling?

I think mainly it pulls to the right.

Nope none of the techs did

And I told them all my severe problem of not being able to keep straight, especially under load.

Yes I do know this, that is why I have been trying to get help here and seeing other alignment shops to sort me out. I just can't get a break being in Adelaide I have no support! lol

Same issue with the castor

SPL catalog + better alignment tech

Are you going to some generic consumer alignment chain or a shop that actually does custom stuff for sports cars?

Yeah that is why I have been ringing around other shops to see if I can get better results. And there is no way I have been taking my car to generic service shops, not a chance, I love my car so much I spend top dollar to make sure it goes to the most reputable high performance workshops in Adelaide. Unfortunately it just has not proven to be that successful as you can see.

And do I really need the entire SPL catalog or do I just need the FUCA and a better tech. Isn't the entire SPL catalog going to cost me like $5K?? lol

Please stay away from rear tow out - it creates dynamic instability under power and the car can get away from you real quick.

PM me if you want more personal info.

I'm in Vic but I do know a bunch of Motorsport people in Adelaide and can connect you to the skills you need.

Thank you BGTV8 I will call Mark ASAP. I really need some better help on this one. You are totally rite, the car very quickly gets away from me under power. I have had so many near misses and one actual curb hit!
