hey everyone, i figured id post this here to see what you all thought
I am a ME student at NJIT and for a senior design project, Myself and 2 other students will be redesigning the front suspension of the 914. the goal of the project will be to optimize the structural rigidity of the control arm while decreasing weight, also to try and optimize the camber curves and adjustability for racing use. prettymuch we would be designing a racing control arm. depending on the results, this may be something that could go into a production run..who knows what im asking is for donations of stock parts. A arms, shocks, tie rods... i want to try and recreate a front corner of the car that will be easy to modulate and work on for demonstration and testing purposes. so let me know your thoughts/ideas thanks Aaron |

felix...good question...i thought about it and this is why
my group's original idea was to do part of the design for the Formula SAE car we are building, that would create less work for us so we could focus more time on building and getting the car right. unfortunately, since we have the whole FSAE car designed, we didnt get approved for it. so i went with something i knew pretty well and am comfortable working on...if this goes well..maybe i can do somehting for the rear after i graduate... |
