The reason they use high spring rates is for quick transitions. however 10kg/mm is way different than the 30kg/mm+ you'll get from a bumpstop or fender contact. just because drift cars look really stiff and stable becuase of big swaybars and spring rates doesnt mean that 10mm of compression travel is gonna cut it since a spike in spring rate will make for a pretty nasty snap oversteer or understeer.

The only way to get the rim on fender flushness on a functional car is to have mega camber gain (ala S14) and a really stretched tire (ala Haraguchi)... also that Gallery S15 is pretty damn flush.


also... the cool tracks like Sekia and Ebisu are far from glass smooth.

Hey, genious... If you're going to keep posting such great info like this I'm going to remove you from our little community here at Automotiveforums.com

Now, judging by your other posts... you have real questions and can post a decent response. But, I won't hesitate to send you packing if you keep this behavior up.

Isn't there some kind of motto on one of the AF main pages that says something like this:
AutomotiveForums The place to talk all things car related.

There won't be too many advertisers, nor new members in here also, if we allow random a-holes like him to propagate. This concept easy for ya?

Re: S15 Pics

It's as simple as that.

We're here to keep the frass and scratch off the forum so you, the members don't have to read shit posts like that.

A well running, clean forum draws new members, more advertising, makes more money.

Understand? Neat.

Re: S15 Pics

Care to explain why you share the same IP address with LT1-Power?

# LT1-Power 69.163.148.157
# SR20DETpower 69.163.148.157



Gone for a week.
