Cool, as I have said, I have used a very similar setup on my speedster (A legend one, exactly the same as the one on Ricola's Scuby powered chesil) so I can give you some idea of what the kits perform like. Braking in gereral is much improved, you can go a lot harder on the pedal before locking up. Turn in is slightly more wooley than with the standard setup. I kept the same bugpack anti roll bar so I think this is due to the locating of the trailing arms being a little more positive with the standard springs. I'm gonna have a good look at the red9 kit at Dubfreeze next month (if he's there) 'cos I'm not sure about the linkage bars that hold the front end together - the brass thingies on the end look like they'd wear a bit quick to me. How do the offroad boys do that?
Does anybody know of any pictures of offroad coilover setups I can have a look at to see how they've braced up the front beam. All the ones I have seen have had specialist beams on (chenowth I think) or king and link front ends
My car wont see too much street use as its being built for sprint racing and the odd track day so I'm after top handling and I'm not too bothered about ride quality. Any suggestions? I don't wanna do IRS on the rear really - I actually quite like the way swing axle cars handle. I've driven a couple of IRS speedsters and they didn't seem as oversteery - and speed +oversteer = fun!
Cheers
