hi all,

does any one have any information on the rear Elise suspension geometry ?

Which one? S1 or S2?
And what info are you after? Stuff like toe/camber?
Or something else?

I have an S1 service manual from when I used to own one. Here are the details for the rear suspension geo:

Ride height: 140mm front/rear
Alignment: 1.2mm (0.18deg) each side (+0.2mm (+0.03deg), -0)
Max difference side/side: 0.2mm (0.03deg)
Camber: -1.8deg (+/- 0.2deg)

Make sure the car is midladen before setup as the Elise rear wheels are designed to bump-steer with suspension travel.

Hope that helps . . .

hi I was hopping to find out the locations of the rear s1 suspension mounting points.

There's a drawing that might be of use to you but no measurements. If it's of interest, u2u me your email address and I'll send you a PDF of the rear suspension section.
