Fast Road Setup. FRS
« on: April 28, 2013, 10:41:23 am »
I keep reading and a friends of mine has had it done on his civic Type R, is it worth paying for a fast road setup when I get my wheels aligned once my lowering springs are fitted, is it a case of just the wheel alignment being adjusted and will the car sit any different than a normal alignment with more camber etc?

I will be getting eibach sportlines fitted and a custom map but It won't be tracked just road use.

Thanks  :smiley:

Always get a full 4-wheel alignment whenever you fiddle with the suspension.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Oh yes, I just wondered if the was a setting for Fast Road use?

If not the normal wheel alignment will do fine.

Normal would be fine. IMO  Fast road setup, you would want the likes of adjustable suspension including camber and toe etc.

Springs and standard shocks, a normal alignment is adequate. Your not tracking it.
