my unstable 914.
A reprint: I could use some input from those who spend some time at 100+ in their 914s. At my first ever track day I found the car really started moving around (I mean REALLY) at these speeds. The back end would just move over a foot or so in both directions Toe? Aero? I'm clueless. My AX set-up slew em' in the twistys, but gave it back when I had to stop gassing it on the straights. -2 camber at both ends, 1/16 toe in both ends, 5 deg caster at front, LE spoiler in front, nuthin' in the rear, big stickeys at both ends. __________________ OK, git to it.

JP,
Check your trailing arms and see if they show marks of binding at the top in the chassis, near the inner mount. I added the reinforcement plates to mine and they binded at low ride height. Snap oversteer is the term. Very unsettling at speed on the track like Mid-Ohio. Raised the ride height and the problem went away. Van (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) |
