3 years ago at ZDayZ. The wifey and me did a poker run there. On a couple of the back roads with down hill switchbacks. I had understeer. :eek: The wifey ask me if I blew the turn. And I said no. The front just drifted a little more then what I wanted. I didn't want to tell her I was too hot for the turn, and I BLEW IT! :eek: That's something I don't want to do on the street. Track is another thing. You got no one coming at you. I blew turn 1 at Pitt International North Course. Coming down the front straight at about buck thirty . Grap 2 down shifts, hard on the brakes. Let up on the brakes some, turn the wheel to the left. And keep going straight. :eek: Rejoin the track between turn 3 and 4. I went farming. :eek: This was towards the end of the session. About 20 minutes into it. Overheated the tires and they get GREASY. :shakes head:

My lowly 100% stock settings keep me in control on the streets. We're perpetually stuck behind suv/cuv drivers here in Portland, so it's rare to actually enjoy any corners, BUT, is the conscensus that aside from tire choice, is the front sway bar the next best thing?
I actually like the compliance of the stock suspension / or have just learned to live with it |
Update: had the rear sway bar installed at full stiff (was previously running stock bar); full soft front; camber front at -2. Understeer solved! Went with these settings at the suggestion of the local shop. However, as many on you said the back end now wants to kick out with the slightest bit of throttle input.
Turn in feels great, but mid-late corner has me hesitant to give more throttle to power out the turn. I guess this would be what some call over steer. Albeit, I need to put some more miles on the car to really get a full feel of the new suspension setting, I’m already thinking of going full stiff on front and middle setting rear as initially suggested. Lots of goodies in this thread as well: http://www.the370z.com/brakes-suspen...-thoughts.html |

Anyway, I couldn't agree more about the compliance of the stock suspension. It really is better than most people acknowledge and in terms of performance, there's a lot to be had there before claiming that the OEM struts and springs are the bottle neck. |
