well where would you put it smart guy inside the car. at the rear of the car? obviously not.nothing more is going to fit in the front bumper area or behind the inner fenders. there is kind of a turbo in the way.

edit:I realize that i don’t drive a race car the only thing they need to change at the event is to no have a major transition in the middle of a braking point and to break up the autoX (IE more people per group) so there is more time between runs. I don’t hate the event because my car can’t handle the abuse i just didn’t think the event was worth going to. i don’t know how log you guys watched the autoX but the course workers were a safety hazzard. maybe i’m just too used to the way SCCA holds their events. the fact that 2 of the course workers had to run for dear life to get out of my way.

Also, what springs are you using?
What about after market control arms / rods?
Have you made any attempts to adjust the weight (front/rear) ratio based on your mods?
Have you had your car aligned properly or corner-weighted?
Are your current struts adjustable? If so, what setting were they on?

*I bought what was soposedly a great setup at the time. knowing what i know no i’m going to e changing to taller springs +1" frond +.5 rear.
*no aftermarket ctrl arms available
*adjust my weight ratio? how would I do that the car is left and front heavy. I surely can’t add weight to the right side or rear to ballance it out and i don’t think a right side conversion would be cost effective. there isn’t much avaliable for springs either without going coilover which i may eventually do.
struts not adjustable will be upgrading eventually

the car has stiffer than stock springs all around. what is soposed to be much stiffer struts (the origionals were but the warrantied pair sucks). the stock brakes are 10.4" so i upgraded to the 96+sho brakes which are 11.6 then i later upgraded the calaper from a single 57mm piston calaper to the twin 40mm 2 piston mustang cobra calaper. for rear brakes we modifed the rear bias valve which reduces rear brake pressure as the rear of the vehicle lifts to keep the rear tires from locking. we just had to change the hidth of the arm to adjust for the lowering springs. Rear pads are pfc’s and are suffecient fronts are hawk hp+ and are definately not. all of the front suspention is thermoplastic and is the hardest bushings they make fo the SHO. I still constantly break them.
