74, stock 2.0, stock front swaybar - no rear bar, stock front inserts, may mount an older set of adjustable Koni's I already have on the back, either way 100 lb springs, 195/65 Eagle GT's.
Looking to have fun, not too worried about much else, but I have a few basic setup questions: I'm going to chalk the tires, but what pressure should I start at? Full tank, half tank or empty tank? Spare tire in or out? The konis need to be adjusted out of the car - soft, medium or firm (keep in mind I will have to live with it on NH streets too)? Should I overfill the oil a bit? If so how much? What am I missing? Thanks, Scott |

Yes I have lost the back end of the car a few times, usually in the slalom but it also comes out in the long sweepers when the power is down.
Everyplace else it pushes. On my best run I got compliments from guys who didn't even see my time - they just liked the way I was driving it hard! So I believe I am driving with the aggresivness that you are looking for Rich (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) If you look in the classifieds you will see where I already put a WTB for rear springs so it sounds like I'm doing what I can on my budget. Making shorter arms for the front bar wouldn't be that hard, but I just don't have the time. |
