Hi Chaps @ WIM,
I recently was in to have the Eibach Pro Kit fitted to my 2008 MX5 NC 1.8 Roadster-Coupe and the Geo afterwards, of course.
All going very well 200 odd miles later - absolutely enjoying the new feel of the car. It just feels alive, whereas before it was, I think, half asleep - well that's my simplified description. I was looking to make my MK3 feel like my old nicely sorted MK2... and that is very much the case now :-)
I opted for the Fast Road (Oversteer) set up - as I wanted the car to be a bit more 'pointy' certainly this is the case.
Just wanted to ask how much different this setup is to your other Fast Road settings which I guess are Fast Road (Understeer) and just Fast Road - would I notice anything different in day to day driving? Which one would feel best/most restful on a long motorway run for example?
It takes (and might well be in my imagination) a little bit more effort correcting against the camber of some roads now on long straight stretches... this is very slight if anything at all and not exactly problematic.
I am assuming that differences between your MX5 NC Fast Road Setups are subtle...
Also any are there any disadvantages with the Fast Road with Oversteer settings over the others which I am, perhaps, not aware of yet - such as increased tyre wear or any earlier than normal break-away of rear grip if I was pushing the car way too hard? I am calm driver - but always good to know.
I'll be booking some time on the ramps over the next month or so anyway for a checkup (Joe recommended 1000 miles) following the Eibachs and Geo should anything need adjusting after things have 'settled'
Cheers for now.
Adam.
