    going back in a couple weeks, should be fun
    This one's better :p

    It was incredibly slick for the 3rd session. The conditions were constantly changing, so each time around the same corner there was less grip. After my low-speed…

          Your car seems very well set-up. What suspension and alignment are you running?

              A GTR? That's impossible! The earth changes axes of rotation and tectonic plates shift whenever a GTR launches (or turns... any change of direction really). He must have been driving in reverse or something.

              I just sifted through a bunch of member's rides threads looking for your motor specs, but you never really give them. Cough it up. ;)

                    I think the car in front of me is a GT-S, the one behind me is definitely a GT-R. Mint too, and both guys were pretty nice.

                          Basically GC koni singles with 450/850, m3 swaybar links, stock swaybars, rubber bushings, eccentric rear camber bolts. Porterfield r4s pads. Tires were 195/65/14 all seasons that day :pimp:

                          Alignment -
                          Toe - Front 0 Rear 1/16" in
                          Camber -
                          LF -3.8 RF -2.4
                          LR -2.0 RR -1.5
                          Ride heights at pinch welds - 6.5" front, 7.5" rear
                          Weight ~2600lbs Spare tire in trunk.
                          Dampers were around 50% stiff front, 1/2turn off full stiff rear.

                          I'm no setup guru, but the car is very easy to drive and controllable, those settings worked good on hankook rs2 and azenis for that track.

                            it's not a secret, I've posted it all over the place. it's a 2.8 stroker. ;)

                            alarmbread - bent strut? I had similar camber on my car, only it was my RF that was -3.3 (I'm assuming the strut is bent). Turned out the R888s don't need as much camber so I took my custom strut bearing out of that side. It could still use a little more (maybe .2-.3 degrees) but I'm getting pretty even temps across the tire. and -2.0 is perfect for the back.
