    Roll centre calcs + nissan road racing

    I'm not saying I run my car that high but for grip it's better off that way. Roll centres stay high enough for the springs to resist body roll easier and you're on a better spot on the camber curve. Hell, my S13's lower than your S14 but it doesn't mean it handles any better or is anywhere near optimum.

    Ya di'n't break the clutch in properly and it's glazing up from time to time. Contact exedy on the correct break in procedure/procedure to fix current problem.

    I HAVE HEARD that you put the brakes on, put it in fourth gear and slip the clutch all sick for a few seconds at time a few times to fix this issue but I would confirm that with exedy before willingly reducing the life of the clutch that little bit. I can go look up the thread for the method that was used if you'd like?

    that would be tops.
    makes sense - it was new and made two circuit days (no drifting) before i got the car. i dont think the previous owner knows much about that stuff.

    So, you put the car in fourth and slip the clutch for a few seconds then let it cool off. Repeat a few times.

    Theory is by putting a lot of heat into it, the chemicals holding the friction material together will stabilise and perform like it's supposed to.
