Adjustable front top mounts

I'm running 3 degrees on mine
What coilovers are you using

 

We will be fitting Gaz coilovers front and rear

 

Some info here

They weren't available when i wanted coil overs, be interested in what you think, you using for track days ???

 

It'll be used as everydayer, track days and a few rounds of Timeattack. We learned a lot with the Clio so will hopefully go quicker in the Meg'

 

Mines a track car only, although i drive it to and from tracks.

I see were both the same era, where abouts in the country are you ???

 

We are in Stoke on Trent

 

Okay so Donington your local then

 

Donington and Oulton, we've done a few laps of both

 

Ian

You are running -3 deg front, any idea what rear camber and front / rear toe ?

 

Looking at Donington 6th November after my drifting day
Also looking at Oulton mid July still not decided yet.

Mine was set up at Cgr, i know it has 3 degrees front, 1.5 on the rear and as for rear toe i'm not sure, sorry

 

Thanks for the info

Dave at Motion motorsport will do the alignment and give us a good starting point, we will then adjust based on driver feedback

 

let us know how it goes

 

Will do

 

Hydraulic punch worked a treat - 76mm cutout

We can achieve max negative camber through the cutout

 

I saw the pictures on Facebook looks like the perfect solution. Do you know where we can source a cutter ?

 

The one I used is a greenlee there is also a company called klauke

They are very expensive, I managed to borrow the one from work and we luckily had a 3” punch

 

How long did it take to punch one out, drilling took ages

 

20 seconds a side

 

Was that setting up as well ???

 

I made a couple of paper templates using the raised swage as the centre. The template had an outer ring that was visible when the punch was in place allowing the tool to be centred. We did move it slightly off centre towards the middle of the car to give a tadge more access to the adjusters. All in all 5 mins did it all

Now getting the offside drive shaft out of the hub that was another matter

 

A couple of pic's of the cutout



That is set to full negative camber

 

Would there be any interest if I could source a suitable punch for people to hire one of these ?

 

If you can, get a punch at say 80mm. The one I used was 76mm.

Certainly makes life very easy, we had hole saws in reserve just in case the punch didn't work - however it went like a dream

I've had a look at manual swage tools also. I found one suitable for a 3" hole. The manufacture reckons it would only do up to 1.5mm steel. I think the turret is 2mm - bummer !
