good to hear!
does it just scrub on one side? maybe your panhard rod needs adjustment?
nah, i've had a play with that to get the axel centered...
just sorting a few options now to stop the scrubing...
car handles exactly how i want too... thanks david!

after all the bullshit i told you the suspension would be good! im glad it handles good!
also you should run a 195/50/15 tyre, that should make it scrub less also...
use smaller tyres. on your 8 inch rear rim you should be using 185s or 195s.
You'll find the response it gives you outweighs the slight drop in overall grip from running 205s or 225s.
Also, take a hammer to your rear gaurds and beat the lip in - all done. If anything I rekon the 210mm springs are too high!
post some new pics
I just looked at the pics again - more specifically at the tyres. Get some stretch in there! what are they like 205 front and something even bigger on the rear? Get some 195 on the front and 195 ont he rear, maybe even 185 if it till scrubs. Some tyre places wont like doing it, but I can promise you it makes the car feel a lot more sharp and focused, and is perfectly safe - in fact I dont think I have ever run a legal sized tyre on my old 86s. always 175s on 7's and 185s on 8's. Makes it look sweet, and gives it way more response.
Also looking at your profile, looks like a 55? or possibly more?
Should run no bigger than a 50 profile on a 15 inch tyre. Any bigger and you lose response.
oooo! Pics!
Pretty sure hes running 195/50 on the front and 205/50 on the back.
Oh yeah justin did you go 7kg fronts 6kg rears?
yeah, ae71 neo is correct...
i am putting 195s on the rear this morning to see if that helps... and maybe a bit of flare...
