listy Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Get the geometry set up too. Makes a huge difference when everything is how it should be. 17" or 18" wheels will be much better for handling than big 19" wheels. When I went back to 18" from 19", I noticed a big difference in the handling for the better. ARB's. Good rubber. Better downforce (front splitter/canards and rear wing) My view on the subject.

Totally agree, get a full geometry setup done from somewhere that knows what they are doing (people have posted their settings before) If you are saying you want an upgrade that will give you an instant effect, for me geometry was the night and day change you are looking for. Car turned in like it was on rails afterwards and felt a lot more planted, added that was on good rubber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 I found that 'dinosaur' to be very effective on the road, but as you well know a good track diff can be a pig on our roads, and a good road diff won't offer the best performance on a track. I know what your saying mate, what I meant was there are better diffs available these days, the OS Giken diffs are available in different settings for different usages, road, circuit, drift and drag.

It's up there with the best of them, I would definately go with the OS if you can afford it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihai Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Reduce more weigth in the front, when you go to track take off the interior and use one bucket seat ! Don´t fill the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
