FREDMANE Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I'm curious on what spring rates / sway bar combinations you guys went with. I realize suspension setup is based on the driver's nature of controlling the car so please include how you drive! I've been looking for coilovers / sway bar configurations for the past month; hopefully I can decide before April 23rd, the first event. Thanks for the input!

boxkita Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 You should look at the class rules for ASP, as very little change pops you into a new bracket. Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitetiger Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 ASP means you should be on Hoosiers, which means stiff rates and big bars. If you are not on R-comps, there is no point in buying rates for street tires. there is alot to think about with a SP setup. so you are gonna want to take alot in to account before you make a hasty coilover purchase. The real question is, how deep in to ASP do you want to go? Ive been farther than most, so ask away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FREDMANE Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'm currently sitting on 225/45/17 direzza z2's. I figured I'd be somewhat serious about it since a couple friends are running the same class as me. I'd figure I'd get coilovers first then decide on sway bars. Bad idea?

whitetiger Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 That's not serious at all. I assume you are in ASP because you are stage 2. if thats the case, you are better off running stock boost levels and running in STX. But if you really want to run ASP, here is your parts list Roll and pull your fenders hard, really hard, or cut and add flares. 18x9 +35 wheels with 255/35/18 hoosier A7 R-compounds or wider. really you want to fit 285/30/18. MCS, AST, moton, or penske or similar 2-way coilovers with 700lb-F / 500lb-R springs. You wwont find these from some off the shelf vendor here. Shocks must be dynoed. Whiteline KTA124 rear arms to make it all fit 25mm F+R bars JDM 5mt helical front limited slip differential 1.5way rear clutch Diff EL headders and TMIC and Protune. Stage 3+ clutch Cornerbalance and alignemnt One you do all this, you will be halfway there for ASP. The ultimate goal would be to get the car under 3200lbs, with as wide of a r-comp as possible, with all differentials upgraded, and as much power as the stock turbo can make on good quality intermediate coil-overs.

Rhitter Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Why do you recommend 18 inch wheels instead of 17 inch? My OBXT build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitetiger Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 ^this. 285/30/18 hoosier A7 is the target size ultimately. its what all the STI/EVOs will be running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
