I'm just curious if anyone has some real knowledge and experience on getting a RST handle really well. I'm not talking about fitting another set of bushes, lowering springs and yellow dampers, but more like:
different roll-centers
tie-bar angles
anti-dive
custom-spec anti-roll bars
revised steering geometry
progressive/linear springs
optimum ride-height vs. TCA angles

try getting hold of a s1 anti roll bar this is adjustable and then get your money out visit zoo motorsport ask camber adjustable top mounts and a full coil over kit from gaz purchase from burton the find the rose jointed rear suspension arm some one on here makes them so the bill for that should be around 4 grand cheap really that or just get coilovers from gaz and get your motor corner weighted

Thanks for the only response so far
Anyhow, I think I won't visit Zoo Motorsport as it's a bit far.
Has anyone here actually repositioned the TCAs/wishbones to raise the roll-center back up after lowering the car?
Or has anyone tested the Zoo's roll-center correctors?
Basicly I'd like the car to be close to RST standard height or a just bit lower. Reasonably comfortable, but it shouldn't tilt too much on the corners.
No the car is too low, rather hard and tilts too much when driven hard to a corner.
It has 16mm rear ARB
24mm front ARB (S1 setup also tested)
Konis setup reasonably low
Spax springs (the higher version)
