    Noise is definately due to solid rear door.

    You need a skeleton rear door, about £8 from ebay.

    Your quite right, i am uneducated when it comes to what ever your on about, i wouldn't have asked if i already knew LOL

    Kyle, i noticed you mentioned corner weighting, did that make a big difference out on track?

    Actually the car was pretty close to diagonal 50/50 already when geo'd and corner weighted (pure luck when I fitted the coilovers) so it was hard to tell. Obviously it was better but how much of that was from the geometry I couldn't say. I'd get any track or even fast road car with coilovers done again in a second though. You can do it on normal suspension with shims.

    That sounds good, would you use shims on the rear of a punto with the coil sitting next to the strut?

    Glad that some people are just as interested in having a sorted chassis as well as power, you should get a thread up about the car
