First kit car help!
Discussion
Hi everyone,
I've just bought my first kit car, and have a few questions. I'm using it as everyday transport, and although it has no windscreen/heater/weather protection of any kind, it's a lot of fun.
1/ It seems to understeer a bit, then oversteer a lot. I'm driving as carefully as possible but still getting no traction in 1st or 2nd gear. Could the suspension set up be hindering me here? It has fully adjustable suspension (coilovers). What would be the best set up to cure some of the understeer, stop the loss of traction?
2/ The steering seems very heavy, but rather vague? It dosent seem to centre as a normal car would either, you almost have to bring it back into line yourself, what could be the cause of this?
3/ Does anyone know where i can get a bonnet scoop from, it needs to be around 18" x 9", by 3" high. The EFI is sticking out of the bonnet and ideally needs covering up.
Thanks in advance for your help, i'll get some photo's up soon.
Phil.
