Suspension

I have an 88 rx7 that I want set up for autocross. I am looking for a good, adjustable suspension set up that would allow me to run on the weekend and still drive it for the rest of the week. Anyone have a setup they like or any you’ve seen that work well.

come on guys... no one out there has ever done any supention work? I'm trying to find out what some of the better setups are.

coilovers?

adjustable stuf like koni?

your question is kinda broad, how much are you willing to spend and how much comfort are you willing to sacrafice

SUSPENSION

Tein Drift Spec dampers -$1840USD (w/pillowball mounts)
Tein EDFC -$328USD
AUTO-EXE Member Bar Set - $515USD
CORK SPORT Strut Tower Bar set -$148.00USD
CUSCO Lower Arm Bar -$115.00USD
CORK SPORT Toe-Steer Eliminators -$53USD
FEED Floor Bar -$372USD
PROTHANE Suspension Bushing Kit -$109USD
SUSPENSION TECH. Sway Bar Kit -$265USD

There are a few othere things in there that im probably leaving out, but that is what i run on my DD. I included the average prices for you as well so you can see what a good setup costs.

Or buy the Cusco comp kit for $1700USD and that basicly everything you need.

I’ll look into that CUSCO comp kit but what are the Toe Steer Eliminators you are using and what do they do. How do you like Tein’s EDFC, it sounds like a sweet concept but does it work as good as it sounds?


Right now I’m looking at the JIC-MAGIC FLT A2 series with pillow ball mounts.
As for the rest it might look something like,
Eibach Anti-Roll-Kit for front and rear
Tanabe Sustec front strut tower bar
JIC Magic Carbon strut tower bar in the rear

Well our cars are "4 wheel steering" cars. Basicly the rear adjusts the toe to make the car corner better (or so mazda engineers think). Its that feeling when you take a croner hard and the rear feels like its stepping out but its not. Thats the toe steering working.
The toe eliminators get rid of that adjustment. making the rear much more predictable and you can feel the limit alot better.
The EDFC is great. Somewhat of a novilty but hey. When i need to make a quick change for a tight corner section its great. And then when i need to give the gf's mom a ride somewhere i soften it up. Its nice to have and seems to work great.

for my track cars i have yet to run teins on them but in thinking of giving it a shot. Mabe even EDFC equipped teins, but im just not sure how well suited they would be.

Im not a fan of the JIC rear carbon bar. I have seen then fracture before :P I have often made 4 point bars for the rear that work great. But im just going to put a full cage in the car :P

Thanks FDTT its clear you realy know your shit and are a big help to the fourm. thanks for the insight.

:P I know a little about a little :D
Im here to help and learn from otheres as im sure everyone else is as well.

i heard something bad stuff about jic, but then again it was an isolated incident
