I want to replace the arms even on stock suspension. I am still confused as to why any sports car does not allow range in suspension alignment. I am convinced most of the benefit most people think they are getting from lowering springs is actually just more front end negative camber.

I agree with OptionZero from personal experience. Why not just use a group 24 antigravity that fits like the oem battery. I am running AG batteries in two cars. You have to be concious about what size you get and what your are using the car for. AG is actually good for cars that sit. You can...

I really think it's just dropping 20lbs up front. And the new tires are an unknown variable. The suspension was only softened like 5% to adjust mid corner damping on real roads with so much less weight. Unsprung weight really does make that big of a difference. Softer and less weight on real...

I would bet you are feeling the reduced unsprung weight in the front which lets the suspension better do it's job. Nissan softened the front shock valving by a smidge as it has less weight to deal with. That should improve the ride quality overall.

How about the front end feel with the lighter rotors and retuned steering?

I must admit I did not actually expect this to go through. Our state has seriously lost the plot and Newsom is leading the lunatic charge standing there talking about saving money while we pay outragous prices for everything. This is very dissapoiinting. The only good news is apparently 200tw...

I studied the settings of the Nismo Z, and it is just the performance Z settings with a body kit, down to the tire size, suspension stiffness (damping and springs), roll bars, and steering ratio. I made a modified version I am testing. If I get it sorted I can share it with you. Also rear wing...

Agreed. The setup is not good. It does not drive like this in real life on the track.

Are you going for the whole week. Forgot about this.

-1.8f and -2.3r is a perfect street aggressive setting. I considered front camber arm just to get more negative camber. This is stock suspension.

This. Same experience for me. Of course you always can have more. But you do not need it. You just adjust your driving to what you have. The Nismo can handle a track day better than most stock. My biggest concern was paying attention to the tires after 4 hot laps during each session. The...

I will see if I can make it. Not far from me.

I guess not. Just checked KW website

Having owned both, in terms of ride quality, I think the Ohlins is better everywhere. Even with stiffer springs, the Ohlins rides better on the street because of better damping. Spring rates are easy to change and tune for. The downside to Ohlins is cost. Ohlins gets the job done using linear...

Friends and family is what I meant. Yeah. No direct shipping.

These graphics are not completely accurate. Under the current draft framework, tire lines with total sales of less than 15,000 units per year in California are exempt from these efficiency mandates. Most time-attack, autocross, and dedicated racing slicks fall under this threshold. Also, like...

Velocity invitational

At Somoma Raceway today.

That sums up ohlins well. You get better ride on the street and better performance on the track. The DFV is magic for a street/track hybrid use car.

Suspension porn. Nice. How do you adjust the rears with the interior back in?
