  1. I can definitely recommend Abbey Motorsport made a lot of difference.
  2. Thanks very much I couldn't find that yesterday
  3. Yes Gktec is the make reading the instructions it says that caster can be increased or decreased by one degree depending how you stack the shims on the arms. I've been searching for information on the effects of caster but can't seem to find anything about the Z . From what I understand I don't think I need to increase it but wondered if decreasing it would help.
  4. Yes caster but I will also be adding negative camber to the front as well
  5. Sorry should have asked if anyone else has any experience of adjusting caster.

    Caster

    I've just got some adjustable fuca's and rear camber arms that I will get fitted early next year. The front arms are adjustable for caster with shims. I was thinking about reducing the caster as the Z seems to have more than a lot of cars . My Z is a weekend/ track car and I'm not bothered about keeping things within factory spec if I can make it better for the track .
  7. I know this is quite old now but how did it go with the sequential and what make did you use.
  8. Thanks for sharing this I've already got data scan but was very unsure of how to do this.
  9. Thanks for both of the replies
  10. I am thinking about having the rear subframe bushes replaced next spring. I am thinking about going for solid aluminium bushes from either gktec or Z1 has anyone had any experience of solid bushes and what difference they made? I'm not worried about any extra noise as I already have solid diff bushes. Thanks
  11. Well done I watched one of your runs on Sunday live on hill climb TV
  12. Thanks very much for the info I have used AO 52 in the past better tyres but I couldn't get any last October the AR1 is ok as long as it is dry. I will go with what you suggest and see how it goes
  13. I wondered if anyone with more experience than me has some information. I am doing a sprint at Lydden Hill in Kent in July I've done a lot of track days there and I set my pressures to 20psi cold and that seems to be about right. The sprint is 1.75 miles long I think even though it's a short course the standard road pressures with be to high any ideas ? I'm using AR1 tyres.
  14. I got some BC ER,s fitted this year very pleased with how the car drives now . I decided on these because of the adjustability as I do a few track days. The original shocks had done 105k so I suppose there had to be an improvement. Also I've noticed less tyre wear on the track. I should add that this my first experience of coil overs
  15. Just heard that the speed trials are cancelled due to the cost of safety measures. I suppose it had to happen but what a shame a lot of history their.
  16. Got mine today thanks very much 👍
  17. I went with the sway bars last year big improvement I have now got some BC ER coil overs that are going to be fitted next month. I have ordered some toe/camber bolts as they are probably worse for wear is there anything else I should replace at the same time ? Thanks for any help
  18. I see Payco's old 370 nismo at Lydden hill Kent today still looks very nice
  19. I've ordered stuff from them before shipping not very expensive only takes a week to arrive.
  20. I don't think you are doing anything wrong and 7.30 is not early but it's a difficult situation.
  21. I am going for the Eibach sway bars first regarding the coil overs how much work is involved in going the true coil over route? I understand that some welding is needed but I can't find any information on it. Anyone know where I can find a picture or drawing? Also sorry if this is a silly question but is the welding underneath the car or inside on the towers?
