Tein SRC rebound and compression set up for track

Hey guys,
I went to the track with the SRC today and I'm having some difficulty to fine tuning it. Right now, I think its worst than OEM setup and running slower time
I was wondering if you guys can share some of your rebound and compression set up, so I have an idea of how to start?
Also, for the SRC, which knob is for rebound and which knob is forcompression?

All setting are in the following format: front compression/front rebound, rear compression/rear rebound.

track: 5/6, 5/6
"looser" track setting: 5/6, 7/7
"tighter" track setting: 6/6, 5/6
Canyon: 7/7, 7/7
Daily/comfort: 8/9, 9/10

My personal preferences are 5/6, 5/6 on track, and 7/7, 7/7 on the street (all the time).

I think you briefly followed me for a bit; I was in the CSG car at the time, but I was hopping around in a few different cars between setup and some instruction.

What settings are you on? If you'd like to have us dial in your SRCs in for you, PM me for rates.

Which settings did you try? Did you purchase the Teins new, where, and did they come with recommended settings? Did you make any other suspension changes? Camber/caster/toe? Tires? Wonder what made it not work for you. Thx

Ok, hope you consider the offer from @CSG Mike to get everything dialed in properly...it appears to be a pretty capable set

From a cost perspective, doing 1 track day costs more than paying us to dial them in for you :p

The SRCs are plenty capable; we've run sub-2 with them, NA

I just wanna see and compare other people set up. I like to learn as Im driving it. its no fun to have everything set up by someone or maybe its not even suit my style, everyone has a different driving style.
