Racecomp and Element racing are also free to not post here. Reason is i already emailed both your companies weeks ago, and i still didn't get a reply from your company's.

Why don't you just use the ? Google also works great for this kind of thing. One of the reasons I still live on earth is so I can use google.

You're asking an incredibly vague question for an incredibly complex topic. There are a ton of factors to consider with any suspension upgrade, let alone one intended for an actual race car.

What sort of racing are you going to be doing? What's your budget? Those are two very good questions to start with.

Also, being a condescending **** like you did in your 2nd post isn't gonna do you any good. The fact that you can't see why people are saying your question is too vague shows that you understand very little about suspension or race cars.

Maybe you're just trolling. If not, then I'd say some humility is going to be necessary if you want any sort of real responses.

Rule #1 of of asking for help on the internet: Help Us Help You!


People on forums don't know you, your car, and they can't read your mind. You have to give people somethign to go off of, or at least enough so that the topic can be discussed.

"Race Car"is a very broad Term.


Tell us what you are building it for(What Series, what events, what organizing body). Different series/classes/ect. have different needs. Some classes can not modify suspension at all. Different tires have different needs. Different HP levels have different needs. Different Aero levels have different needs.


Then what is your budget?


Do you care about warranty, or just want the best of the best.


What is your location - Different countrys have different access to parts, or have huge mark ups on Duties/Tarriffs/Exchange rate fluctuations....

Since my thread is already going south... (lets have some fun)

Who from the members here (that already replied or going to reply) that actually owns a (BRZ/FRS/GT86)?

Who of you has a striped out interior (nothing inside the car just metal),and a driver seat, safety roll cage, and a steering wheel... etc?

If your answer is no to any of these questions. please move on to the next thread.

If your answer to both these questions is yes.

you are eligible to answer the following two question.

What coilover do you have on your car, sorry "race car" (what brand, and part number if available)?

What is the maximum negative camber you can put on "your" race car?

Thank you

Don't people need to know more info, like the race group, rules, and tires to give meaningful feedback? Isnt camber completely dependent on your tire specs? Have you asked your tire source for the ideal camber?

Why don't you give any information about your car?
why do you want copy someone else's setup?

People are willing to help you but you have to let them and stop being an ass

"Hey guys my car is gutted so its a racecar so now tell me what I need to do to it because I am a car noob"

Thats the message I get (no offence). Like I already said go search and see what others do. If you are really going to make a racecar what track will you run mainly, do you have a budget, what class will you run, what tires are you going to run?

I think I'll step out of this thread. I don't own any "race cars", with a "stripped out interior", "safety roll cage" (I don't know what else a roll cage is for, other than safety), but i do own a "steering wheel".

Thing is, I don't own race cars, because other people hire me to drive theirs.

Oh, and while you're out it, you need to get out of this thread too; you don't own a race car either.
