Your car is beautiful! You got that last picture in wallpaper size?

Damn. That's an impressive list of stuff there. SPL is some nice quality stuff!

ENT-Z - you gotta let me know how you like the suspension setup. Been reading all about this setup and it sounds very cool.

Will do. I spend a lot of time on the track with this car so I am really looking forward to seeing how the EDFC active works in that arena. I'm hoping it is awesome!

Jerggy13 · 01-26-2014, 07:12 PM

Did you go with a more aggressive alignment? Or do you think it has more to do with the control arm style and firmer bushing?

Definitely both. My current alignment specs are -2.5 camber, +7 caster, 0 toe up front and -2.0 camber and 3mm toe in on the rear. I may opt to move rear camber to about -1.8 as I have to make a ride height adjustment anyways due to it being a little too low for my driveway.

Well I have had 4 track days in so far with the new suspension set up and I have to say it is pretty awesome.

My first weekend of the year was with NASA and on the second day they moved me up into the HPDE3/4 run group which is open passing anywhere on the track that you feel comfortable with. Open passing was a new experience for me and it was pretty cool passing in the turns instead of just on the straights.

My second weekend I ran in the advanced group of the porsche club event. There were 3 GT-3s and 2 911 Turbos in the advanced group and none of them were able to keep my pace - needless to say I am very happy with the car!

Next up will have to be a more aggressive front pad and new rotors all around (finally wore mine out). I would love to do a StopTech or AP racing BBK but they get very $$$$. Along with that I would like to do a 4 pt cage and racing seats/harnesses.

Very nice buddy. I have always wanted to do a track day.

You should try to make it to cars and coffee this weekend.

ENT-Z · 04-14-2014, 08:21 PM

I definitely plan on being there as long as it isn't pouring down rain. I invited a friend with an M5 as well. I just have to get time to clean the car up sometime this week - it is covered in brake dust and bits of rubber!
