Yeah, the TDs sound like fun... I'm continuing to plod away with assembling the thing, its going to be easier to sell as a completed car.
I'll give you guys a hint... i'm thinking along the lines of a non-alfa upright.

Finally made some progress on the rear alignment - here is a link with info and pics on how we did the camber and toe on the Dedion:

Appologies for the cross-link, but I saw no purpose in copy-and-pasting everything.
I'm sure some will disagree with the actual alignment settings, but thought I would share how we got it done in a controlled manner without too much fuss.

Well after all the modifications are sorted and you are happy with your set up, there is only one thing to do and thats drive the ring off it like my mate Andrew Scadding going out to get the Sunday papers..

Re: Suspension
Unless the picture is fooling my eye, it looks like the GTV6 has negative camber at the rear.

Re: Suspension
Typical for what?
Street tires maybe. Slicks need more, probably up to about 5*, some Touring cars over here run what looks like 7* (extreme). R-type tires need around 2-3* give or take a (1) degree... Width of tire also come into play.

Re: Suspension
To be different, I'll guess 3-3.5* (neg). I put about -4* on my Dedion and it may be a bit too much for 205-Rcomp. I'm looking to add more rubber - perhaps 225.
Maldi, stock Dedion is 0 +-0.5 This is for track/race.

Re: Suspension
Answer is 5 on the front and 2 at the rear..and no, the lift is not due to any road irregularity, apparently that comes a bit later in the bend ( i am told)
