Diffs: 7/7/5 (AE oils)
RideHeight: 26 f/r
Toe: -1 f/3.0r (with LRC D-plate)
Camber: -1.5 f/r
Camber links: 2A f / 5C r
F kickup: 12 (1 dot down)
Swaybars: 2.6/2.5 f/r
Steering: middle hole on Ackerman with 2 stop washers
Caster: 15deg block
Antisquat: 1.0 (1dot down)
Wheelbase: 2mm f / 3mm r
About shocks: i had 6x1.5 pistons with 37.5/30 oils along with 105/121 droop, 2nd hole on tower outer hole on arm. That is setup with understeer. I went thru some changes since beginning of this season (of course w/o any notes about them), but i've found setup i've used right out of the box. It's basically same except shock package, i had 8x1.3 pistons with 40/32.5 oils, droop and mountpoint were same, and it was a blast for our technical hardpacked semi clay/sand track (why i've decided to screw something... ), on-power exit after 180's was really insane, just pedal to the metal and you're out.
We have rainy days now and for next several days, so i'm trying to do some research and understand is it all around shocks or no.

Immediately I would say try the 10* blocks. Will probably get you what you're looking for. Usually as general rule its 10* indoors or tighter tracks, 15* outside on a big track.
Few others to try:
-for more entry steering, try 5k front
-try 3k rear
-try running center dot antisquat
-swap your sway bars front and rear. 2.5/2.6

How tight is your track?

According to some guides lowering caster angle gonna increase initial turn-in. But i don't need that, i use brakes for the first phase
BTW i've found that front-left driveshaft was bent (not much to cause bind issues, but well enough to give some additional vibration), can that vibration transfer into f.diff thru drivecup and irritate it's normal work?

I bought a NB48 yesterday used and its missing the servo steering link .... Does anyone have a spare they would get rid of ? I don't want to buy 4 balls , 16 plastic pieces, and a link just to replace this one part....

Pm me your address. Also assuming that you need the line from the steering rack to the knuckle? if so I will mail one to you.

All Canadians that own a Tekno please join here... I'm just trying to get an idea of the number of Tekno owners.
