For all you people that spend all this money on suspension

[James Crivellone]

^ I think we all assumed you were one of those stuck up race car drivers who looks down on anyone who want to "stance" their car. I can't stand those kinds of people, as much as I can't stand stupid stancebros.

I am a firm believe that everyone who,"thinks" they can drive well should hit up at least one track day event (AutoX or Circuit)

Only makes you a better driver in the end.

Plus you can see in real life under real world conditions what all those fancy things such as rebound / compression / caster / toe all do

its been said 1000 times, everyone is different.

me, i want a car that is basically impossible for anyone besides me to drive. stage 3 pressure plate with unsprung clutch, huge sway bars, track spec stiff coils. reatarded bushings. insane torque. only i will have the skill to even get my car going from a stop....

that is the dream.


P.S. i have autox dream. i might go once if ever get my car to where i hope it to be. maybe once.

I'd love to take the Firehawk to an auto-x. Suspension is what it is when it left SLP. I did put wider tires, 4.10 gears, and a 383 in it.

H&R Race - $500
KYB Shocks - $300

Honest question--why this when GC/Koni is only $200 more?

I sorta do this too in a way. I like everything I own to be pretty personalized, to a point that most other people find it annoying as hell to use.

Did you even look at his location?

[evandael]

Vivek is an e30 protege, how dare you question his suggestions.


OP I spend moneyz on suspension because if it ain't broke, I still fix it. What else am I going to spend it on?

Oops. But my question still applies to people who spend $850+ on H&R Race/Bilstein Sports in the states.

[ApexAddict]

I've yet to see any e30's at autocross, or any driving events really. Why why why why why?

You interested in attending Willow Springs? More than likely in November.

[Wh33lhop]

In a well-setup car this shit is seriously fun.

Adjustable coilovers are illegal in Aus unless you can put a permanent locking system in so you can't go below 100mm clearance. Then you need to get it checked and approved, alot eaiser to just get HR race and billies, and not put up with the hassels.

Speak for yourself OP...I replaced EVERYTHING with attention to only AutoX and tracking. Function over form

Suspension:
-GC coils 700r/500f
-GC e28 race camber plates
-GC Rear race shock mounts
-GC E30 M3 custom sway links
-Koni adjustable shocks and struts valved for my spring rates.
-Shortened housings and E30 M3 tabs
-Meyle arms
-Tree house racing eyeballs
-AKG bushings/IE replacing ALL stock
-e30tech weld in correction kit
-UUC 22mm SwayBarbarian front kit.
-Condor Speed engine and transmission poly bushings.

This last weekend, I am doing another this coming weekend and planning to hit as many events next year. I BUILT the car for only track and AutoX.
