  1. I just don't want to keep spending money on the car. Although if this can fully solve it, it is most definitely worth it. Also its a 3 hour drive each way which is a tad concerning in the car as it is now. But yes WIM do seem to be one of the best out there so I have no concerns about them.
  2. Ah that’s not too bad then. I’d rather have it done properly with a good setup. That’s understandable, I’ll see if I can find the sweet spot for now. Thanks
  3. 1: I’ll have to have a look at that then. Thanks. 2: Ah I didn’t know about the 2 click increments. I’ll see how it goes. 3: Sounds straightforward enough then. I’ll make sure to do that too. 4: That sounds awesome! Precisely what I want haha. How much would an alignment cost if you don’t mind me asking? Also may I ask what tyres you recommend for the stock alloys? Mine are starting wear down a bit so I’m searching for some new ones, but can’t decide.
  4. 1: Is there a way I can check or do I need to ask the garage that did it? 2: OK thanks for that. I'll give thosr settings a go. 3: Well that's not sounding good. Can this be fixed at all? 4: Those numbers sound more like what I've seen before. How does the car perform after a proper alignment has been carried out? I remember I drove an RX8 a year ago when deciding what car to buy. It handled so nicely, was very responsive, turned in sharply and had a nice weight to the steering. I kinda want to get something like that. And seeing as the MX5 has the same chassis (I think, with a bit cut out) that it would be pretty similar.
  5. Hey and thankyou!! 1: I'm not sure if I'm honest 2: 18/32 all round (with 32 being the hardest) 3: In the air, the wheels were the only things tightened on the ground 4: I'm not sure again I'm afraid. I admit it looks strange to me but I'm new to all this. Glad to hear it from the experts too!
  6. Hey All, I'm currently having some issues with the handling on my 2007 NC MX5 2.0 Sport. The car is lowered 30mm with Meister TV Zeta CRD Coilovers however the steering is very vague and unresponsive. I can move the wheel an inch in each direction at all times without anything happening. There is around 10mm play in the steering but that's not a problem, at least I don't think so. At low speeds the car feels very unresponsive and it takes a lot of lock to get the car to turn. High speeds are a bit better although going in a straight line is a bit scary as comtrolling the car isnt that easy with the steering. On higher speed corners there is no feedback from the steering and it is still very dull and unresponsive. The car is not engaging to drive and I'm really dissapointing as everyone says it's a great handling car, I've not seen this yet. http://imgur.com/JJrGc6WHere is the alignment that was put on the car when it was lowered. Ideally I'd like a car that has a sharp turn on with responsive steering. The opposite to what I currently have. Also my tyres are Pirelli P Zero Nero GT if that helps. I can provide more info if required. Thanks all. I hope I can experience the cars full potential as I can sense it has a lot more to offer yet.
