If you want settings just search on the site, in fact just ring up Vauxhall and ask them as the factory settings would give you the type of reaction that everyone gets after having theirs setup anywhere ffs

I have done a search. I got the impression that most people whom had got their geo checked had moved away from the factory settings and that the companies which were setting the cars up didn't reveal the values they were using.

Foxy, thanks will do.

I'm sure Steve told me what they were setting the car to when they did it but I instantly forgot, I think he used the flashy thing out of MIB

Complete pain in the arse to have to spend £140 each time you want the geo setting, just because you used too much kerb on a trackday Exige/340R settings are widely praised and are available to all.. alternatively just borrow someones car that feels "right" and take it to your local 4wheel laser alignment monkeys and get them to take the settings so you've got them forever more

Ding, that's what I'll be doing with your old car and mine eventually. Never have 2 'identical' cars driven so differently.

And then you would still remember

Trouble is you would have to remember where you put that piece of paper

Ahhh.. now he's lost the paper!

What about AMD? They do alignment, would they have setup Thorney's Nitrons? which setting where used there? Does that mean AMD know the special recipe?

EDIT: Hmmm now I come to think of it I think AMD only do a geo check on VW's and Audi's.

I called into amd the other day to ask about nitrons. They said around £1300 ish and that includes fitting, setting up and geo.

Where would they set them up?

[The Knobs]

Probably on the car

This was a good question. Who's got a good answer ? or better still the right answer ?
