Best Setup For Handling?

Post by **Gayno** » Mon Jun 11, 2012 11:05 pm

At Japshow, I'm taking on the handling track!

I did this last year on stock shocks and no prep, now I have coilovers I'm going for the win!!

What is the best setup, in terms of shock hardness front/rear, tyre pressures, etc for me to get the best I can??

Obviously this is just things I can adjust at home, without much effort as don't have time before the weekend now!!

That small track would require alot of rear end turn to maneuver the car and change direction quickly. If be tempted for uber stiffer rear spring rates and a stiff rear end.

Yep, which is why the 4ws should see me at the top....I came 9th overall last year.

Should I just go full hardness front and rear?!

But keep the rears standard, or go higher?

i'd go harder, purely for acceleration, not like your in fast corners

and i'd run a little softer rebound on the front

but thats me

might be better giving paw a call for advice but at the end of the day its all down to how your feeling the car
