Hello List
Thank you for ALL the advice so far. This is where I'm at.
I've
-installed new front competetion springs and GAZ shocks (adjustable) from
TSI
-installed solid rear spring bushings (poly)
-set tire pressures at 23 cold 26 hot This is where I ran last 3 races
seemed good
-car will be in frame shop early next week to check frame
square/straightness etc.
-car will get 4 wheel alignment and 1.75 neg if possible with me in
car.(early tr4)
-rear springs were found to be of different arch so re-arched them
- front swaybar 3/4 dia (unknown origon) set to zero
- corner weights wil be measured with driver.
That's it for now, it's a lot of changes at once so I'll never know which one
did the most but this will be my base line to go forward on.
A brake Bias and new dual master cylinders this winter perhaps a LSD diff
(budget pending)
It's sometimes a real pain not knowing what previous owners have done or tried
to do to the car in years gone by, I urge all racers to document all changes
and improvements to thier cars for future buyer/owners .....and just so that
you remember too.
Cheers
