Won't be long til we're off to alignment and corner balance. The car is mostly street use and probably a monthly autocross. 21mm bars up front and 180# adjustable coilovers in the rear. 23mm front sway bar and the front spindles are raised 19mm. Torque bias limited slip and a stock rear sway bar.
Are you guys running stock settings? I don't mind a little more aggressive but it's not an all out competition car. I'll sacrifice a little more tire wear for performance. What have you guys run that works? |

I've recently found a Porsche shop here in the Eastern Panhandle of WV that can do four wheel alignment and corner balancing and I've finally finished with most of my suspension and brake work (must replace atrocious spacers near future), so I'm wondering what recipe's the go fast crowd might suggest?
Dave and Chris, please chim in! The stats: V-8 Hankook Ventus V12 evo 225/50ZR16 front, 2.5” spacers (atrocious I know, thanks PO) Koni red front Stock sway bar front Turbo tie rods Fuzion ZRi 245/45R16 rear, 3” spacers (nutz, thanks PO) Koni yellow with perches 220 springs Stock sway bar rear Boxed trailing arms Rear chassis stiffening kit. 1986 911SC front hubs Primarily street with no need for tire longevity, sometime track day car Summit Point WV Additional info-Sheridan standard widebody. Quite a bit lighter than stock. |

... Chris, please chim in! I would follow the same recommendations as above with emphasis on this: Make sure you have toe-in at the rear wheels, approx. 1/16" both sides. Boxed trailing arms may make this difficult. Increase the front torsion bars to 21mm. The widened front lowers the effective spring rate due to suspension geometry. Get a bigger, adjustable front anti-sway bar. |
