Front
23mm torsions 22mm sway bar Bilstein sports Rear 200# on Coleman adjusters Koni yellow adj. No sway bar Elephant bronze on both ends Obviously I like a kart. But that 3.6 is heavy and the 200's are the minimum I want back there. The "featherweight" 2.7 was good with #180's but they weren't stiff enough for the 3.6. The LSD has changed things and either I'll go up to 250's or add a small rear sway bar to dial in a little bit more stiffness... just not at the same time. Good Luck |

I'm running 205/16's with 200 lb. small diameter springs, and Bilstein shocks, and adj. perch's. 19mm front bars. Wow! Those are a lot of replies and all useful. I am building a street car, that I hope to tour with. The hope is that it will look a lot like the original 1.7 car, with normal body work, bumpers and trim. I think the sail is going to be painted. Planning on adding some modern conveniences with a console so it will cruise always wit a quickness, but without attracting attention. I am now leaning towards the narrow springs with anodized adjustable perches. |
