I need some suspension advice! I bought a 914-6 track car last spring and it is very soft. I don't know what I have installed yet but I suspect I need an upgrade over the winter. The car is a 2.8 liter with full cage. Any recommendations as to torsion bar size and rear springs? The car has front and rear sway bars, Bilsteins and monoball
front mounts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |

I have recently obtained Bilstein front 911 struts that will accept coil overs, and have a raised spindles. These, I plan on using on my 914 together with rear coil overs. The car is a 2.0 4 cylinder in stock form. This will be a IMPROVED class (any suspension modification allowed) AX car, driven to and from the events. the car will be driven with Toyo RA-1, and switched to Hoosier A6's for competition. The tire sizes will be 225/45 x 15 all around.
My question is this: 1. What spring rates should be used with a well lowered suspension, front and rear? 2. What damping shocks would be best? 3. Is there a need for finding double adjustable shocks? Any help would be greatly appreciated! THANKS, Nick |
