getting grip with your rear suspension

[DRFTR86]

leigh also runs 70 psi cos the r1rs are to grippy according to him

[Simon-KE70]

they are grippy but no he doesnt run 70psi

Quite simply remove the rear swaybar and go for a lap.

[Simon-KE70]

that works for corners but not for straight line grip

id be dropping the psi in your tyres below 35,
getting your diff nose pointed down,
stiffer shocks, softer springs,
and ease off the front sway bar.

id be dropping the psi in your tyres below 35, i run 30 to 32 cold in semis
getting your diff nose pointed down, its been both up and down now straight
stiffer shocks, softer springs, deffinately dont need stiffer shocks but softer springs will be tryed temperarily
and ease off the front sway bar softer front sway bar will exagerate the problem if the rear is too stiff

sorry for my vague question,
but im more after what ppl have done with there panard rod mount heights, whos fitted watts linkage's, and who has changed there trailing arms angles and mounting heights.. more than just simple traction brackets as i already have these

[DRFTR86]

from the conversation i had with him at status tuning, he ran 70 psi at a DA round because of his low power output, he had to much grip and couldnt get the tyres to spin hence the 70 psi, im sure he doesnt run that pressure all the time, but that was one of his attempts to lose some grip

[driftke70]

softer front sway bar stops the the rear end pushing onto a rigid front, and allows the front to absorb some of the action from the rear end.

[s14seriesII]

softer front sway bar tends to increase front grip and loosen the rear end.. i need to go the other way..

-after doing some calculations and my rear roll centre is about 3 inches too high

before you lower your rear rc 3 inches take a look if you need to raise your front rc first. a good rule of thumb is to have a lower rear rc when doing circuit work on live rear axle cars.
