Suspension Geometry

Suspension/Steering Geometry??

Hi again folks,
I wonder if any of you know the caster, camber, and tracking settings, front and rear, for an Evo IV?
Standard settings in mm for the tracking would be great, and if posible, standard settings, and track day settings?
If it makes any difference, my car has HKS suspension, anlong with the HKS adjustable top mounts.
Cheers guys/girls.

If you have adjustable top mounts set the front to 2.0 deg -ive camber and parallel toe and the rear to 1.4 deg -ive camber and 0.5mm of toe in on each side

Thank you very much for this information.
I'll take your advice, and get it set to that.

No problem sometimes geometry can be down to trial and error see how you get on with those settings

You guys are damn good.

I've never come across forums that have such helpful, and responsive people.

Must be something in the nature of people who own evo's.

Thanks guys. 10/10

The fact of the matter is that all the nicest Evo Owners are on here so is it any wonder why we all get along like a house on fire?!!!

All set and done now, looks and feels fine.

Just thought I'd mention....
Anyone who has the adjustable platform/HKS susspension, and is struggling to get the adjusting nuts loose, as they tend to oxydise in the threads, making them extremely tight, or even undoable!!??

I sprayed the threads with a good quality alloy wheel cleaner, several times and left for some time, until the lock nut and platform would move, easing them one way, then the other, also sprayed WD40 to help lubricate.

Then I could adjust the ride height as needed, by measuring from the lower point of the lock nut, to the bottom of the shock absorber thread, to give equal height to either side.

Hope this helps someone.

Hi,

I am running Biltein shocks and Tein springs rear 25mm and front 35mm lower and 235/40/18's on my evo 8, can you recommend the settings for this?
