hey guys i have this bump steer rear end thing going on very scary as my mazda was totally solid in the bends and bumpy roads, anyway only had car s2000 for a month and it has new gazmatic shocks and springs all round and in seems to handle very odd on rear end i have spoken to gazmatic and they say to bring rear shocks back and they will test them so thats my first job. btw my mate just got an s2000 and i have driven his and his rear end seems well planted.

Gazmatic??? WTF are they?

Each S will different...wheel size, tyre brand/size/depth, whether it's had a bump or not, the suspension and the all important Geometry will affect it.

His S may also have a few extra bits, such as bracing etc...

Oh...Gaz!

Speak to Lovegroova...he is the resident expert on Gaz Coilovers as he was their guinea pig

Something could be wrong with them however, so follow their advice and get them tested.

Just bear in mind my aforementioned comments...it all needs to be setup correctly, and not by some kid in kwikfit
