thanks for the warning about v6 performance RJK
suspension i was looking at a coilover set from Ksport and i have emailed them just waiting on a reply about some extra info for it. with coilovers do they have caster adjustment or is there andother kit that you need for that?
um by the way how do you get extra lock, do you adjust the stoppers or something else?
I think they also go by the name FIT Performance.
Looking that the pictures of K-Sports VS coilovers it looks like you only get camber adjustment. They're pretty expensive for what they are.
You don't have much choice in the way of caster because of the stupid Z-bar design. There's the adjustable ones mentioned above. I think Nolathane also makes caster bushes which give some adjustment. I've been told that Commodores run a fair bit of caster anyway, maybe just trial the stock Z-bars before you decide to buy something.
Nissan guys use lock spacers to get more lock on the cheap. They just slip over part of the thread on your tie rods and make the rods go further into the rack, essentially just a big washer. Not readily made for Commodores though. I remember my VS having a fair amount of lock anyway. The bigger problem is the rack, the Commodore racks don't like being overused. It's hard to wind on lock with them and they overheat quickly.
