One other thing sometimes remembering the Porsche 911 trick helps.Brake in a straight line and power out from just before the apex cut's understeer big time.Running deep into a corner on the brakes or too fast and a V6 will understeer. Yes, this is very true. I've found out that I had to adjust my ...

Hello, I think Lucas is right. The staggered setup looks awesome, but probably doesn't help an already nose heavy car. I think your friend's car handles more neutrally because he has the stiffer rear sway bar. Does he have staggered wheels too? If not, that would also make the car more willing to t...

Your car is gorgeous! But what makes you think the shocks are going to solve the understeer? Thanks for all the positiv feedback guys! It really means a lot! Regarding the understeering, everyone I talk to tell me that the Koni-shocks doesn't work on the transaxel-cars. Appearently they are way to ...

We'we had beautiful weather here in Norway the last few days, so I have been on several nice trips with my GTV6. I've found some really nice twisty backroads where I can test the suspension setup, and hear that glorious exhaust note 8) Everything seems to work fine, but I have quite a lot of underst...

Best regards,

David B. Hi David! Thank you for the kind words, it really means a lot to me! The wheels currently on t...

Removing ignition switch / ignition barrel -- Help

Hi, I've searched the forum, but can't find a thread covering this topic. My original ignition switch / ignition barrel is dead, so I've bought a replacement. My problem is that I can't get the old one out. I can't really see any screws that holds the ignition barrell, but it might be hidden away so...

I would be interested to know what your front end handling is like under spirited driving with your 30mm sway bar and no change to the rear (apparently). How does it behave now ? I haven't been able to test the car properly yet due to a bad connection in my ignition-lock, will hopefully solved that...

Dan668: Looks sweet! I love the rear rim wide look (reminds me of the BMW m's)..any rub? What size tire do have on rear? Thanks :D There are some rubbing in the front, when I turn the steering-wheel all the way over. Not really noticable, unless when parking... At the rear I've noticed rubbing twic...

Very nice! :) I'd drop it 15-20mm though, for looks only, but I guess that can create problems with the rear fenders? Thanks Mats!! I would like to drop it too, but I'm having enough problems getting the car in and out of the garage as it is :wink: I have to put 20mm wooden planks under each wheel ...

My GTV6 is slowly coming togheter :P Plastic body-trim has finally been mounted, together with new 16" Keskin rims. The car has also gotten new rear brake calipers, new rear drilled discs and new SuperAlfa pads. A 30mm front sway-bar/anti-roll bar with Uniballs is also mounted. This is how the ...

Wow, that black SZ is looking very sharp!! And the backseats looks very good too! Do you get this modification approved by the "traffic authorities" in your country? In Norway I think a convertion from a 2-seater to a 4-seater would be difficult (or impossible) to get approved, even though...
