Was after Joel's excellent post on the USA board that I decided to set my shockers much harder.

With a set of standard spring clamps I have now dismantled all four corners of the car and put an additional 1 1/4 turns on each shockers, result is...a new car.....ride is slightly harder but on the power out of bends the car is stable no more wallow and no more kick from the rear..

Also worth noting is that the way the shockers need to be turned is towards the minus. ie less damping = stiffer ride, I was concerned and phoned Joel, who was out but by the time he replied I had it figured out in my mind.

Thanks Joel excellent job

Would this apply to my 1997 GTS? Haven't really had a good chance to test the standard setup yet, but might be interested in changing the settings if the difference is that noticeable.

Paul, glad you got it all sorted.

Graham, yes this ability to alter the shocks applies to your '97.
