So... do we have to proceed step by step, or can we skip steps?

This car works as a package from the factory so well that it's easy to screw it up. Some things are easy and cheap (like a little more camber than factory) but bigger changes are a bit more complicated if you want to keep or improve handling. You just got do it carefully and think it through. - Andy |

^ I highly recommend at least 1 track day or auto-x event in your stock 86 before jumping into modding the car.

True, but most setups are undrivable on our tracks. Talk about bottoming out on some bumps and dips. It's kind of scary when you're doing 95mph around a high speed corner and the suspension bottoms out in a lower grip area...

Very nice! Wish we could get more people to listen to advice like this. You can follow this guide and still have a car that looks great while performing as well.

These 7 deadly sins should all be etched in stone and carried to the top of Mount Olympus.

How so exactly ..please explain?
I notice it isn't uncommon to see low offset wheels on people that track their car in Japan (like Tsukuba Circuit in Option/Japanese videos) Isn't there positives/pros too? ... since it's a little wider? |
