We have been a-xing our 1.8 40,000 75 914. As we are new to the game...we have some questions. We have installed a new front sway bar, 140 rear springs and new rear shocks. Wo turning the car into a pure track car... what are my next steps (other than R tires, new motor and seat time) to improve the car? I was told NOT to change front torsion bars ... as it wouldnt be streetable then??? Comments? Also what is the best tire pressures for AX using my current street tires Dunlops Sports? When I go to Khumos, then what pressures should I use? Thanks from a rookie/beaten too often driver...Karl

After I put in my 2.7L, I ran street tires once....Dunlops....205 X 50 W10s or sumthin'. I got bout 200 yards before I was going ass end first (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)
Next time out was on Kuhmo V racers. I've never looked back. IMO, Rspec tiars are the BEST single improvement you can make...... **even for a beginer**. I found the Kuhmos are good in the high 20s, pressure wise. |
