im LOVIN the CS with edfc! i just moved the module into my upper glove box today actually. jsc speed is where i got mine....he hooked it up for 1750 shipped!

ive seen a scale at moroso but i dont think its for corner balancing. and i want my suspension to be balanced perfectly. its such a pita tyring to remember how many 1/2, 1/4 turns when adjusting height on each side which is why i want em balanced to precision

as far as the corner balancing, its not that necessary for track but you can do it if you want. also, having the driver sit in the car helps for alignment and height adjustment since most of the time you'll be there anyway.

check with Pettit Racing in Ft. Liquordale. They are Rotary racers and I know they used to have a 4-tire scale.......Back in the early 90s, they weighed my RX-7 TT and gave me a printout with the weights on all 4 corners. pretty cool!!
