      Etiquette? I had to look that up on Google!

      Just joking, I'm sure you were well aware of my etiquette last time Sean!

        Etiquette, a code of behavior that delineates expectations for social behavior according to contemporary conventional norms.

        I almost had you!!! (ok, who am I kidding )

          • That's an impressive list of mods, DonJuan. I want to see you out at a general practice session or sprints.

              Still learning the car and trying to set up the KW DDC's properly.

                If you attract a lot of chicks, you can throw etiquette out the proverbial window. Because man, you've got a lot of chicks. Am I right? So who cares whose toes you step on? You know what I'm sayin'? Just sayin', as they say.

                  I can send you to a guy for corner weighting. Take the guesswork out of it. Then you can press the Sport button and learn to drive--er, learn the car.

                          Al already did the Machine's theme song in his latest video! I do get slightly nervous around you... being a machine and all!

                          One day I might have a look at sprints but it's not for me yet, I've previously had my L's and P's many years ago in Tassie but I don't know if I want to go to that level again!

                          My dearest Anthony, there are no stages in tuning other than what manufacturer's wish you to believe, hence I'm now with Spectune and their support should I need it. But yes, it's great fun! Never did I think I'd have a car that'd do 0-100 in 4.1s...

                          The setup is just a little too 'bouncy' at the moment, I don't mind sports for the track but I do like being able to corner quickly without straightening the wheel and bouncing on the straight bits when I'm just out for a casual drive.

                            Sounds like you just need to leave it in Comfort mode and unwind the coils a bit. Increase your ride height. No other adjustments you can make in the KW DDC.

                              Although very much appreciated, I'm not a fan of your comments. My PSS10's were much less 'bouncy'! They don't feel sporty, just 'bouncy'. Think I may have to go to P&P who installed them and ask them what can be done.

                              Agree that leaving it in comfort and winding it up is a solution, just not near my preferred solution.
