In the old ZForum that a young man webmastered, there was a post with photos of the strut adjustment. There was a slight adjustment that some guys who took theirs to the track did on their front ends and they swore by this adjustment. I couldn't find anything in this forum on it and was wondering if anyone knew anything about this particular mod?

I also thought adding a strut brace would help stiffen the front end and help minimize push on hard turns. Haven't sprung for one <yet> but with the roadster, it could use a stiffer front end around turns, even local driving not on a track.
-If you're talking about pulling the alignment pin and kicking the strut over for additional camber, yes, it works very well relative to stock. You'll get a lot more camber with camber plates, but for a "free" mod pulling the pin works well. The strut bar also improves handling.
