    Ride height - Tarmac car

    You will definitely see an improvement from the ast's mate. Diffs ain't so bad if you know where to go. ;) YHPM

    Rear roll center change when lowering

    The beams are also chocolate and do flex/deflect. The pure motorsport stiffening kit will reduce that a good amount and in theory, your geo should remain consistent.

    Ride height - Tarmac car

    So is it road use and autosolos? Or something else? Your biggest improvements will come from correct suspension geo and a diff tbh mate.

    Gripper? Do you want a different cw&p?

    Rear roll center change when lowering

    Yes mate it is, but the toe change is more noticeable than the camber change.

    Ride height - Tarmac car

    Yeah you should be alright then tbh as movement is not so much with those spring rates. Mines quite a bit lower than yours as well, but I have the front roll centres corrected so I can get away with it.

    Rear roll center change when lowering

    When you lower the rear the angle that the beam sits at is altered, so if the beam is machined with the camber and toe in mind for a set ride height it changes. Not dramatically, but it definitely changes.

    Ride height - Tarmac car

    Chassis legs mate - not subframe. You've got to be very very low at the front though. Mine was doing it one year when I was at the nurburgring. Whats your Ast spring rates? My kw's that were fitted were 60n, so about 335lbs. Too soft by a country mile for track work.

    Boot battery relocation cable

    The wiring/component would set on fire before that popped tbh mate. I'd go with a 200/250A mega fuse personally. That's what I use in mine and never had an issue.

    Rear roll center change when lowering

    The front roll centres are the ones to focus on tbh as that's where the biggest gains in handling improvements come from. The extender pins like the vw/Audi boys use aren't especially good when combined with Clio hubs. They elongate the bottom hole on standard ball joints, so you just increase...

    Ride height - Tarmac car

    I'd imagine they will be very close to the legs mate, and if the springs are reasonably soft on the B14's it will deffo catch under hard cornering.

    Rear roll center change when lowering

    It's more toe and camber changes that are the result of lowering the rear.

    Looks well that! Do the driveshafts hit the chassis leg on track? Ok mate, no problem.

    Ride height - Tarmac car

    In a perfect world the wishbones need to be sloping down from the subframe to where they locate in the bottom of the hub, as in centreline of the securing bolt to the centreline of the bottom ball joint pivot. You can run them parallel with the ground though. Is your car as low as it is in your...

    You need to be a member to see the group buy section mate. There will be about her gb around late March/early April.

    You can go 30-40mm lower immediately with these fitted.

    Ph1 172 Track Car. Next Year I Go Racing - Hopefully!

    You'd just have to buy another adapter plate from gripper mate. Easy.

    Wheel alignment - string method

    Well you will leave yourself open for the smart arse comments! Flol! Tbh, the resetting of them doesn't bother me anyway. I've done it that many times I know how much to move the track rods to get very close to the desired setting. I also have a string setup that hangs off the car. That's the...

    Wheel alignment - string method

    Yes mate optical ones. They work very well on all the lowered cars I've done with mine mate. Never had an issue transporting them either! Lets not forget they have the conversion table on them as well - ideal if your s**t at maths! Flol!

    Anyone ever made a front splitter?

    And this is the very reason why I'll never bother with it!
  22. NorthloopCup

    Anyone ever made a front splitter?

    Doubtful as you need to test it on the same day, same track, same conditions, same consistency of driving style, etc etc.

    Anyone ever made a front splitter?

    Addressed! ;)

    Anyone ever made a front splitter?

    Lol you took your time!! Dan changed his before mine!
  25. NorthloopCup

    Anyone ever made a front splitter?

    There will be improvements from having something like this fitted as it reduces the amount of air flowing under the car generating lift. For it to be really effective though, it needs to fit as close as possible to the wheels (obviously allowing cut outs for full lock) and ideally be coupled to...

    Jacob's titanium ph1

    Get booked in on this Jacob The Russian.! I'll be there in my cup as well, so we can see how much of a nervous passenger you really are! Lol!;)

    200 needs more fasts, advice!

    Jam sport do a supercharger kit for them too.

    nobody seen the pure newsletter?

    Shame it needs laguna hubs. Really nice looking bit of kit though, but that's what you come to expect with pure motorsport stuff.
