Default Anyone have a copy of the GT2 Motorsports manual?

As title says, im looking for a copy (PDF?) of the GT2 (RSR) Motorsports technical info manual.

Specifically, shock pressure settings... I have the RSR shocks on my car and have the excerpt pages for shock settings (bump/rebound) but am missing the section with pressure settings.....

Thanks in advance
Jeff

I have the book here and there is no reference to adjusting pressure settings: the shocks contain 25 bar of N pressure and its not a tuning tool (unlike JRZ, MCS and Moton which can be changed as needed).

I think we discussed this back then but here's some info, as Steve says 25bar pressure is not adjusted
here are the click stop adjustments for '97 GT2Evo and RSR
993GT2



993RSR



newer thinking uses digressive valving that looks more like this from 2005 997RSR

997RSR




You can see the evolution of damping thought by comparing the above to the fully digessive valving used ifrom '08
2008 RSR



I had my Bilstein Cup shocks redone w/ digressive valves by Bilstein San Diego, the change and result is remarkable

Thanks Bill & Steve.. Bill a fountain of knowledge as usual :-)

What I was looking for this time was how to "clock" the hoses.... I had to send them to Bilstein and they moved. Rather than trial and error was hoping the manual would have a reference. I think I have it figured out now.

There seems to be so much info in the guide any Idea where I can get one?
