i'm running the 180lbs right now, and they're not heavy enough.
plus, i'm going to install a set of muellers roller bearings, which will take 20-30 lbs of the effective spring rate.

so 250lbs should put me exactly where i want to be.
which is where i can actually use the front sway bar for finetuning as opposed to having to run it on full soft all the time ...

Actually, I think several of you will be kicking my butt at the beginning of next year....

I took a look at the car build and I'm beginning to think we won't be ready for the start of the year! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

I've learned to handicap what time estimates are given me and when I use the factors I get March for the car being ready...

Pretty discouraging occasionally.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/barf.gif)

Heh, that's exactly what I thought. A/R bar is still in the same place with 300s in back. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)
Maybe you'll have better luck.

If you had of said something, I would have loaned you a pair of 250s to try. I have a set of 275s if you wanna try more.
I'm not going over the 300s. I'll soften the front.
Anybody got some 19-20mm T-bars in 914 spline F/S?

Dang Andy,

You are not fooling around. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif)

Did you already have a full 911 front end? torsions and calipers?
