Longer wishbones  Or, longer wishbones, and sleeved struts:   If you're on coilovers a set of adjustable topmounts will get you a little, provided you have enough thread on the top of the dampers to fit them. ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

The first, at the minute the only places I know are Special Tuning, Voisin Racing and KRS.The second you'd have to have a set of special coilover bodies made for. The third you can get from Compbrake, KRS, ST, and probably many other. ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Sleeved struts - use a thinner strut casing than normal and put an offset sleeve in the hub - you can only get a little bit extra this way though________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

I take it the above top mounts from Compbrake work with standard struts? No need to go to coilovers.________________________________________ For all your Peugeot needs PugRacing.comGti S16 199bhp 164 ft lbs torques! |

the top bolt is replaced with this magic camber bolt, and the bottom bolt remains in placethe top hole doesn't need modification, as for example the excentric part of the Monroe bolt is 10mm, whereas the bolt itself is only 8mm and the original is 10mm also ________________________________________ VTSbest 60' : 2.272 best 1/8 ET : 9.375 @ 74.42mph best 1/4 ET: 14.603 @ 97.047mph Team Trackday™ |
