when you corner balance, you should have ballast equal to your weight in the drivers seat. then fiddle with the spring perches, torsion bars etc, until you have have the left/right numbers as close a possible. I dont know the bias front/rear for a 914 but you should try to make front and rear bias match also..
basically you want each wheel to carry the load it is supposed to (ideally) on my 911 i was able to get these readings with a fat ass ballast ( like me) in the drivers seat RL410 RF403 RL638 RR 636 all these meassurements are taken with sway bars disconnected... no preload in the suspension. |
