track alignment

[kellsled]

Hey ive searched itr-dc2 and here and havent really got what im looking for.I have a dc2 with coilover's,front and rear camber arms and want to get it set-up at the week end.Now there is plenty of threads i found for standard suspension but as said my tyres are sitting just above my tyres so i want a decent set-up for this ride height.I was wondering if anyone would no were or can advise me on a set-up that will work well on track.Not sure if the dc2 and ek9 camber settings will be similar,altho i read that if positive toe/camber on rear is set the car will be prown to understeer in moist-wet conditions and if set-up with negative toe/camber it will have better turn in but oversteer.I dont really mind it being tail happy a bit as my jordan was but dont want it all over the place.Sorry for rant just need settings asap

Are you after settings that will do for all conditions? What sort of tyres and spring rates do you have?

A good base for all conditions is FR: - 1.5~1.75deg. RR: - 1.5 deg. camber with 0 toe all around.

If you dont have rear toe adjusters , id recommend buying a set . you can add toe out easily then on the rear if its dry on track.

My trick is when gauge aligning a car , have the adjusters on before aligning , set the camber to your own figures , set toe to zero , then work out how much toe is added by moving the track rod arm or toe adjuster by a flat side (20-25degs) , reset toe to zero.
At the track then you can rotate the track rod arm or toe adjuster by a flat side , knowing how much toe is added.

If you get a garage to align the car get them do that it will help
