Buddy Club spring rates are 10k springs front and rear. You would definitely need a bigger sway bar.

I have them and have never been able to minimize the oversteer.

IMHO... these coilovers are fine for street, NOT for track.

 

That makes sense too. My first track event will be May 14th at Streets of Willow. I've done a few drives throught the Malibu canyons. I know it's different but I already decided I want stiffer suspension based on my canyon runs. Even aggressive driving (nothing crazy)when possible around the streets, I want stiffer suspension.

I'm just excited about my first track event and want to be prepared for it. I want to get my suspension dialed up and make a few canyon runs before the track event.

The S is great right out the box, but I think I'm ready for some suspension mods. Mainly coilovers.

 

I doubt that. Stock suspension is more than good enough for someone who hasn't even done 1 track event.

Hell, Rylan kicks ass with his stock suspensioned car.

 

That is not the most cost-effective way to do things, but it's your money to spend. Hey, don't bother to listen to us. We're only the people you asked advice from....

 

It will take more than a few canyon run to dial in a set of coilovers, specially since you haven't been to the track before. You would need to set the correct ride height, alignment, and shock settings, etc. What you may think is the car may just be your driving style.

BTW there is nothing wrong a with a little body roll. If the car maintains grip and goes where you point then it's fine.

 

Ha Ha...I do appreciate everyone's advice here. You guys have been much help.

One thing I failed to mention is I've been running HR springs with oem shocks 6 months into ownership of the S (purch new in '02). They are starting to feel a bit mushy. So I will need replacements real soon.

 

Are you running the Race Spec BCs? I was told they would match up to a Tein RA set. BC does have a standard/entry level coilover set mainly for street use.

Yeah, I did find out today that the spring rate is 10k.

 

I will be taking it to Darin, at West End for the coilover install. In addition to the install, it will be corner balanced, height adjusted, and aligned for track use. We'll start with that and adjust accordingly if need be after the event.

 

That has nothing to do with track use. That's a typical install for adjustable coilovers; if you don't corner balance, why the hell get adjustables?

 

Balancing out the corners won't help at the track, at all?

Please explain.
