get a good set of coils,adjustable front camber kit/ or adj. pillow mounts.
imo keep the rear camper close to 0.
im hopefully picking my new car up on saturday, its got tein coilovers but dont know which ones. im just looking into options on how to get the best handling out of it
i don't know maybe it's my car.
but i've ran -2 up front and -1 rear ,stock front and rear and ad07
found that the rear is way too twitchy for my liking.. spun a few times.
Not sure TBH, the tyre is well out of it's optimum running it at 0° static. I run around 1° (stock) and could really do with increasing the rear some more to match the front 2.5° at the front as the back is a bit too lively with the 24mm bar.
Pillow mounts are pointless on our cars.
hey Kozy, so you run -2.5dgrees on the front? what kind of drop do you have? just curious. I'd like to experiment with camber next year on the track. I've always kept my alignment close to factory specs with about a 1.5" drop. I'm sure that's not optimized for track, but for daily drive it's nice to get good wear on the tires
What is the ek9 front sway bar size? I know that what you get in the rear is also dependant on the front. I used a 24mm front sway bar with 22 rear last year and it was pretty nice. Canadian SiR is about 26mm front sway bar.
Yea -2.5° up front, hardly any drop it seems, maybe .5" max:
(Check out the cobwebs and tango discs... yea, it's been used a lot recently. Need to get it in that garage.)
That's not massively aggressive TBH, unless you do a lot of motorway miles it shouldn't wear the tyres that badly, it's the toe that is the real tyre killer, if you have that in check then you can get away with a fair amount of negative camber. For a track only car you can take it further, Steven runs -4° on his track car and get even wear.
EK9 front bar is 26mm. Yes it does kinda depend on the front bar, but also the spring rates. It all adds up into one single roll stiffness distribution number*, which is the one you need to pay attention to. The tyre doesn't know or care about where the load comes from, only how much of it there is.
(*If anyone's interested, I can give them a reasonably accurate idea of this number if they give me specs.)
He might not reply mate he hasn't signed in since December 2016 lolPm u
