Recommendations for a chassis tuning book please.

Specifically for road going Impreza suspension fettling, so effects of bump steer, toe in, arb's etc

Race Car Vehicle Dynamics by Miliken & Miliken but don't expect to understand any of it at first.

At a slightly more sensible level - Competition car suspension by Staniforth

Thanks - just ordered Competition Car Suspension.

Forum reading is so mixed so want some basic principles to work from. Thanks

Fantastic book, have a PDF of it because I'm too tight to shell out the £170 (so i was told) they were new when I did my degree.

The other good one - albeit quite Formula-car biased - is Carroll Smith's 'Tune to Win'.
