yeah as long as there captive it should be fine for a wof i don't know any wof guys that have checked if there cut only captive you could just heat the spring up inside the car and get some fat boys to sit on each corner for some cheap compression. :P

just remember if you go cutting springs you can throw your ride comfort out the window and if your car bounces along the road expect to be pulled over a lot and cops don't care if you have a wof if they think there cut you have to go get them checked to get that sticker off your car. ;)

I'm inclined to believe a guy like Herb Adams over the general internet massive - most of whom haven't been building GM sports cars and Nascars for 40+ years. Each to their own.

and im sure he runs cut springs in all the cars he builds ::) cutting a spring doesnt just change the height of the car, that spring is designed with a spring rate etc in mind, and as soon as you cut it, you fuck all that right up, not to mention the fact that a spring has a full coil at the top/bottom that sits flush with where it is meant to on the strut then you go and cut it and all you have is one pointy end of the spring touching the strut

Actually your spring rate increases - and he was saying that in regards to 'enthusiasts' working on their street cars. He also says to heat the top coil and flatten it. So really, you could just read the book.

Ok i know a good camera and someone that takes excellent photos and then can work their magic to give good results in the end result,can make any thing look f#*kable but that there is one very nice looking v7. Loving the subtle look .Some times less is more .

Mate what a compliment, thanks for the kind words!

Oh btw, I do also shoot a bit of pro photog. ;)

Wow. Are you running more rear camber than front, or is that just an optical illusion?

Yeah definitely, think it was running -1.5 front and -1.0 rear.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
