Well had the car out up hartside yesterday seem to have lost a lot of understeer from more pressure in the rear but now the back ends locking up far to easy. Tried turning the bias valve to might as well be off and still just as bad.

Running the standard bias valve?
If so... maybe the bias valve has seized mate? So even when your turning it off its not releasing?

No that went a long time ago. Just changed the started motor and was looking at it and found that the plastic cap was just spinning on the screw because the was crap on the threads. Cleaned it all off and now I have a bit more adjustment. Just getting washes up and going to take it out see what it's like now
