At the front? They are my side lights, we require side lights in the UK and i wanted these then in the headlight housingWhat are the small things next to your fog lights?
Yeah they are my white side lights, similer to side markers and i still have them in amber but our laws say you must have white or similer color front side lights! Why i dont know since they are not on all the time like DRL'sThe small black things next to where the stock fog lights go in this picture.
When making a run... I lower my rear rebound and it gets more stable out back. If I need a little more, I set rear tire pressure a half to 1 psi lower. Works everytime. I run 14.5k front/10k rear springs. Front rebound is maxed out and rear is about half on koni yellows. Rear toe in .01 so basically zero.
Great data and thanks for sharing.
It certainly does help towards it, my issue was not mainly tires but it didnt help my issue either. Mine was more setup more then anything,The tires (level of grip) is what determines initial settings. Last year, on 245 tires, I probably had too much spring. Front rebound was wayy down and full soft in the rear. Otherwise it would understeer and then snap oversteer without careful driving.
.Our setups probably differ quite a bit, autoX vs road racing, but more negative camber is good. -2 degrees is pretty low and I can feel the loss of grip in the corners. Tires screeching means nothing. Slicks barely make any noise.
You'd have to drive the card very hard (harder than you imagine on public roads) and read the tire temperature (inner, center, outer) and then determine if you're running too much or not enough camber. Generally speaking, more negative = more grip.
I don't really care too much about tire wear during daily driving, but even with -3* plus of camber, the outside half of my tires wear out quicker.
Well i am trying my best to learn this all, so i am just sharing what what i find when i find it so it may help the group or not, its certainly helping me as i progressOh please do share. Loving all this numbers and knowledge you're giving out.
Yeah im working around my ride height so i had to and im pretty free on stuff like this in my series i wanna join, so thats good news for me, gonna prep for my tubeular subframe jig soon.Wish thats was legal for me to do. Although I dont think my car is as low as yours and my arms are pretty flat.

Yes i read many posts saying over lowering can create issues! It would not be as bad if i kept the stock front lower arms, but as i have pauls it throws the whole front to rear balance out of whack! So i had to do something to match the front setup!If anything, you're proving all the original DSM racer's point about not over lowering the car. Tip my hat off to you for trying stuff out of the box!
