Looks good Brady. I can't wait to see it on track!

I'm sure you're going to have a low 10 with the Hoosiers. You're on the right track with wanting more spring rate too.

 

Interesting. Had never heard about the K-Sport coilovers being used in an actual racecar - I'll be interested to get your opinion on them in your S2000 once you finally get it sorted out.

 

I'm curious how they'll work as well. I had great luck in the past using them on my 240SXs, a 350Z and of course the Type R. From what limited driving I've done on them already, they feel slightly underdamped in the front, like they need some more rebound. The adjustment made a big difference, but I still want more in front. Of course it didn't help the situation when I put stiffer springs on. Compression feels good so far. In the past the KSports have had a lot of compression dampening, but they've recently (within the last year) changed the compression to get better ride quality.. it seems to have worked.

 

Keep the updates coming!

 

Have you seam welded the forward gusset/mounting bracket for the front upper control arms? With spring rates that high, plus slicks, you'll probably start to tear them. Better to do it up front than wait for them to break.

 

do you have any info on this? like a link or discussion about it in another thread? i've ever heard about this before.. but then again, i've only had my S for a month.

 

waiting for parts! i picked up some scales tonight so i'm going to weigh and corner balance it in the next day or so. threads get boring without updates, so i'll try my best to keep them coming in.

 

mainly a problem with the autocross guys. with what your doing I wouldnt worry about it right away. Ive never had problems...

Ill compare my notes in TTC with ya after my first event... Testing at VIR this weekend.

 

It's in the R&C FAQ. Here you go...

When I switched to 710s you can see what happened to my car and what I did to fix it.
