Hi again! What is the recomended setting on the front shock absorbers which Koni has made for the Elan. We have set them on 1,5 turns(?), but we still think it is a bit to stiff(the car darts around

I would recommend adjusting any adjustable shock to full soft and adjusting up as the shock wears. The reason for this is that shock absorbers (dampers) are designed as "dampers", not springs. Set th

Pardon my lousy english(and/or mechanical incompetence), but what do you mean by "changed the settings in jig time", and the "shock adjuster flats". The joys of Lotus ownership ;) Thats the way to g

Don't misunderstand me, on flat surface the car feels like it is going sideways because of zero bodyroll (It is not the tires who is loosing the grips) The reason that I almost ended up in the ditch
