I've had a look high and low... I doubt anyone will have them but it's worth a try


Stock alignment data (and/or tolerance ranges)

Castor (or Caster)

King Pin Inclination (KPI)

Spring rates (surprisingly useful since the Cayman is MacP strut type so the installation ratio is close to 1:1)

Also any data which would help determine the degree of Ackerman bias (max wheel turn angles or whatever)



Will be using the data for a simulation model of the car for a driving/racing sim... already have bits and pieces but nothing concrete...

Thanks in advance for any useful info at all

Also any data which would help determine the degree of Ackerman bias (max wheel turn angles or whatever) 47.26, 4.8 and 6.5, respectively.

Hope that helps.


Any chance of hanging a protractor and spirit level off your wheels at full left and right lock hehe

Really should go to a Porsche dealer but they'd probably think I was a weirdo and have me arrested. Now if Porsche published this data my life would be so much easier

Thanks anyway

Dave

Just for future reference, does anyone know any friendly Indies in the Leeds area that would spare the time and have the patience to have me pestering them and/or getting a plastic/wooden ruler and protractor out (no metal edges) near their cars?
