Upgrades So Far 10 years 8 months ago #128117

Have now finished doing some upgrades to my TF160 and very happy :woohoo: Have fitted:-

- Mike Satur comfort suspension which has lowered the car by 12mm
- Z&F remap
- Pipercross filter with cold air feed
- TT Mk7 exhaust which sounds great
- Toyo TR-1s allround.

Car looks great and goes very well. Have set the suspension at 12 clicks F and 17 R with pressures at 26F/36R. However whilst the car feels planted i am getting oversteer which becomes understeer :-? on LH bends. Any ideas?

The car recently went through the MOT and no play was found. The rear o/s wheel bearing has just been replaced as well after it collapsed.

Nice looking car you have there, and very tasteful with the upgrades.

Still tempted to try black wheels every time I see another good looking example...just worried about how noticeable WHEN Paula kerbs it....again...

With 17 clicks on the rear dampers and 36psi in the tyres I suspect the rear is too stiff. Try 14 on the dampers and 34psi in the tyres. See how that feels.

:-? Have you had the tracking checked? You need a 4 wheel laser alignment centre.

Your car looks the business :beer: Very tasteful :broon:

Thanks.

Yep she has had 4 wheel alignment done. Think I may go down the route of softening the rear.
