IAD has some nice ramps.

It's not slammed, so it's still usable here in NOVA. And I have good working travel. Just the way I like it.

Watts link is set to the center position (neutral on roll steer) and my Konis are set to +1 from full soft front and rear. I will experiment with some other settings as we go but I doubt I'll run more than 1.5 turns on the street.

I'm also running -1.5 degrees of camber left and right up front.

Handling... well it was great before but it's truly incredible now. The Pilot Super Sports have incredible grip relative to the PZeros (and I'm 275 all around now instead of 255) so it just grips. The suspension is firm and planted. Very compliant. Rough surfaces or smooth it doesn't really matter at all.

Braking is great now as well since I've got so much more rear control with the new dampers... the *** end doesn't jump up in the air like it did before. The car stays nice and flat.

FromG2Z & Red__Zed, I highly recommend the Koni Yellows. They are a big step up from the factory Tokicos, especially the rears (which are the weak point on the car). Watts link is not really necessary if you are OK with panhard setup. The dampers are far more important... they get the suspension where it needs to be. Anything beyond that is just an added benefit.

Another thought is forward bite. One of the benefits of the watts link over a panhard setup is putting power down on corner exit. Coupled with the dampers and sticky PSS, I can get to near WOT coming out of a tight corner in 2nd gear and maintain grip. It just digs in and goes. Previously I'd have been feathering the throttle to keep the rear end in line and tires in the pavement.

Needless to say I am very happy with the setup. Can't wait to get down to ZDayZ and run the Dragon with the crew.

Good lord, I can't imagine being able to put the hammer down and gripping....


I'll have to check it out and adjust the budget :ugh2:

Yeah...

First off.... no dyno chart

second, needs to be 3 inches lower, -4.5* camber, and lose that extra tire, 275s wtf? throw some 225's on there to get some nice stretch.

oh yea and roll and pull the fenders and add 35mm spacers

My only regret... is not going hellaflush.

:bowrofl::bowrofl:

story of my life.. but it looks like this

Damn that truck is sick!!!

:tup:sounds like she is really gettin dialed in.

thank you!! Cant wait until the Z comes together in the next few months here...

I can't wait either man. I've been anxiously awaiting the FI TT kit... can't wait to see what Tony does with your ride. :tup:

I would guess in the next few week we should at least have some teaser shots together. Anyway, I wont highjack your thread. Whats next for the stang? I have to admit when I drove my friends I was very pleasantly surprised!

No worries man. :tup:

Next up... not really sure. I need better brake pads ahead of ZDayZ (currently running Hawk HPS) but aside from that I have no immediate needs or wants. Except for more seat time with the car and fine tuning the suspension.

The real focus now is on the S2000 which needs some minor things like tires and brakes. And terrrbooooooooooooooooo. Nah, no turbo. Gotta be a good boy. :D

Turbo whistler then???????????
Make that WOOO WHOOOOO sound.
