Yeah plenty of people have run stock arms. Teddie's car is stock arms, Jeff's car was stock arms. So long as you dont have any rear damage I think it puts you around -2 with a reasonable rear drop.

Yeah that's not necessarily a bad thing for me. I can appreciate both. Small improvements can yield good returns at SoW too, they're just not as big because average speed is lower. As much as I'm not...

Gotta love forums. IIRC 1:45 with really basic bolt ons and dead RE71's? Canned tune, tomei UEL, megan/proparts coils.

It's fine, I know a lot of people dig that track. It's iconic. I have a lot...

Even with Lugod's updated unit it's still less "free" on entry vs Torsen.

But I'm not advocating one way or the other.

Same rate I had which was 6k/7k. They're made at the same factory. Might have slightly different valving but I doubt it.

Torsen allows you to get away with bad driving habits on entry. OSG will punish you for it.

On exit it's the opposite.

Yoks let you get away with everything, blending bad inputs is stupid easy.

I had shortened Whitelines on the old setup. Reality is that lots do not know how to set up properly, especially on strut-linked cars where it's more important than control arm links. Not only free...

I ended up cutting maybe 1" off the Whiteline links and used those, but the Racer X endlinks seem to be the ticket.

There are more options out there for cheap revalved stuff. ProParts Megans are one, but RedShift Motorsports are another competent option. Both are valved by autocrossers who can provide the damping...

Seems to me like you need to work with the rear end more and not the front. Try stiffening it and then changing the rake angle.

The car doesn't trail well, imo. Need to be soft with it and have a...
