I am trying to decide on whether to upgrade the torsion bars, say 22 or 23 or go with coil overs in the front with not sure what rate springs. Any comments on either?

Ah, PCA Zone 7 and it's unique rules.
That "points" system ......at least at GGR & LPR, is odd to say the least. There are "points" for about every mod and, as such, the class you're in today might well not be after you make some mods. As pictured my car, IIRC, had stock T-bars, a 19mm anti roll bar (full soft) and 140 lb non progressive rear springs. 7 X 15 wheels with 205 fronts & 225 rears....Victorracer Kumos....hay, it was 10 years ago (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Std Bilsteins at both ends. About -2 camber at both ends with 0 toe F & R......it did have a good running home built 2.7L six. One hole in them weird GGR rules is weight.....unless they've changed. That is where I would spend money. Get the handling set to what makes you comfortable & go for a weight reduction. When I put 21mm Tbars on it took me a lot of thrashing around to get the suspension balanced....this was a few years later. I ended up with 275 lb rear springs and a 22mm(effective) AR bar. It still had that spring combo when I sold it a couple years ago, weighed 1725 lbs. and had big black beanies on both ends......still lifted the inside front tho. A pic of my trip to GGR at Marina. I had to go there to convince them that GGR was not the center of the AX world. Attached image(s) ![]() |

QUOTE I had to go there to convince them that GGR was not the center of the AX world. If I remember right, it cost ya a buck. (wink) |
