The Beast is built for coil overs on all 4 corners. What spring rates are you guys with 4 wheel coil overs using?
I know TimT has coilovers if memory serves.... And if you have Fr / Rr weight distribution that would be great..... My previous track 914-6 had T-bars front / springs rear. Thanks, Bill P. |

Thanks for the info Tim. What I find interesting is how much different the coil overs spring rates are in comparison to T-bars and spring combo's.
On my previous 914-6 the equivalent front to back rates had the softer setup up front, similar to a 911. But I've heard from a couple of people including yourself that they have a heavier rate in the front. I wonder what the physics are behind that? The way T-bars transmit resistance versus a coil spring? Thanks again! Bill P. |
