You are not allowed regular knob adjustable ones for IVA.

I thought you were, but that the adjustment has to be disabled. No info as to how, so its possibly down to testers discretion.

What about bias bars on the pedal? With no remote adjuster cable?

I had been thinking of getting an obp pedal box, but these all come with bias bars for two cylinders. I am not averse to making a fixed bias for the iva test though if necessary.


Also, regarding bias calculations, a few years ago I wrote an excel spreadsheet for our formula student team to calculate the brakes needed. Anyone interested?

We'll need a few accurate details on static weight distribution from a finished car as inputs, and ideally the COM height, but I doubt anyone has put a car on a tilt table to measure that.
