Is is the lateral movement? If so, it takes less than the cost of an oil cooler to resolve. Is it L/R communication? Because you'll snap the axle before you notice that, and everybody that claims to notice it is smelling bananas in their wine. So many people get caught up on these things that they forget that the major advantage of an IRS isn't inherent to the design. It is the adjustability...and it requires a rather well-sorted IRS to even notice these things. I'm jealous of the camber curves for the Z's multilink...they're insane. You don't have to worry about dialing in unreasonable rear camber at all, because it is there on demand. On the other hand, the toe curve is horrendous, because they tried far too hard to correct the 350Z's corner exit flutter. Of course, the unsprung weight on the mustang is a bitch, but that's another discussion entirely. |
