@Turn in Concepts - I know you guys track your 86; can you comment on the rce/koni setup with various tires? Say...hankook rs3 or even nt01s?? I really enjoyed my rce yellows and stock dampers with the prius tires but I'm curious if I'd want more spring stiffness/damping with stickier tires.
My plans or at least my philosphy for the suspension are pretty similar to seven's. For me, I'm planing to install most of the parts, wait for the stock tires to die and then upgrade them. Once I get a feel for things with sticky tires, on the street, I'll do the fine tuning with sway bars. Honestly with how much I'm changing, RCE yellows, bushings and more adjustment, I really don't know how the car will feel when it's all done. I can make some educated guesses, but I'll let experience tell the tale.
