Got my hands on a pedders suspension kit (low) and was wondering if the cv8 settings in the FAQ were the same for the vxr? I am happy enough to fit it myself but can't find anything on the geometry settings after it has been lowered. I know monkfish use there own settings but can't justify/have enough time to drive the 160 miles to have it fitted and set up.

I didn't get the kit directly from themselves so it would be cheeky to ask. Although I was very happy with the service I had done 2 weeks ago. top guys! Been a pleasure to drive without the bloody exhaust rattling.

I changed out my springs & shockers for Coil Overs. I had the full geometry alignment done, but I don't recall what Holden car I used. The company I used didn't have the Monaro VXR set up details.

I'm sure if you phoned MF, they'll be happy to help you out.

Failing that, pretty sure in doors I have my Geo set up sheets from when I had lowering springs fitted to my VXR on superlow and prob when I had the SC coil overs fitted, i'll check tonight and let you know if the above looks right.

Can always bring them to work, scan and e-mail to you smile

There's no harm in asking, but don't be offended if they say "No."

I have the same kit as you, and I recently had them aligned. I'll see if I can dig out the sheet.

Edit: just saw Ian's post above. If Ian can't find his sheet, I'll have a look for mine.

Hope this helps ?
Geometry figures after Road response pack and quick rack fitted, although they should not make a difference to any settings ( I think )

Near enough the same settings as my super car set up, I've got a touch more camber front and rear

Cheers for the replies guys. All will come in handy for when I get around to doing it.

Got a 4 post lift available, so fitting should be easy and warmer than doing it on the drive biggrin don't do cold me laugh
