Yeah i don't know how any of that works....i installed the canards and my cruise control stopped working. I don't really use any of that stuff so i really never even thought about it beyond...."eh maybe they're linked somehow". Got the error on the screen and just shrugged and kept going.

My canards are in the way it seems and so my cruise control doesn't work anyway...

aye. I'm currently at -3.4. Considered starting at -3.6 or -3.7. Perhaps -3.8 at most....because it's a starting point and i'll be realigning very often.

Alignment and suspension setup starting point. Would love to hear thoughts What i'm still not 100% settled on: 1- might increase front camber just a bit as the starting point. 3.6 or 3.7. 2- considering reducing rear toe just a tiny bit for better rotation. Maybe from 2 to 1.75

Identical setups, including tires? I'm not sure how much brake pad friction material does as far as outright stopping power vs things like tire compound/width/temp. Imo pads are about being repeatable, controllable, and heat resistant. How long they last of course is something else entirely...

Damn. I'm sorry that happened to you. has to be a fluke though, right? I do like the fact that Dodson is, well, Dodson. Strong name in the business and they often stand behind their product. That said.... Pure just shipped me the replacement parts for the wastegate. Should have them by...

Thanks. Learned something new today. I'll take it

How does one even measure the impact of something like that? Surely you won't be able to tell through lap times, because i'd assume the impact (if any) isn't really too significant. So to do so would mean you'd have to be turning in laps so consistently....within maybe a couple of tenths or one...

That's very interesting. So as we're talking about the front shocks here, does that mean the "true" spring rate is whatever i have + 50lb/f because of the canister? Is that would it works? So then these would be the "true" rates: First set going on: 343/800 ---> 393/800 Second set: 457/914...

I don't consider myself any such thing, because i find it silly to paint with such broad stroke to begin with. The phrase 3rd world implies that the people who come those countries are thirld worlders. There's nothing meant by that phrase outside of it just being pejorative. I'm not butthurt...

It's not a force field man. Read the 1st part of my post. I've been against political correctness my entire life, up until the point where people stopped understanding the difference between that and just being a dickhead. I am, what YOU implied, a third worlder. G'ahead and use it man. But...

Nah, i do know your type. I think it's you who doesn't have any self awareness. Casual use of the phrase "third world" tells me all i need to know. You don't think it's pejorative, because it's become normalized. Something something Overton Window. I don't follow any religion. I also don't...

I have multiple sets of springs on the way for the Nitrons, and so will be trying a few combinations. First set going on: 60/140 (343/800) Second set: 80/160 (457/914) Third set: 120/160 (685/914) Let's see how that plays out. Will be looking at both lap times and subjective feel. I think...

Damn. Let the man do some branding...

That's what i thought as well. But for whatever reason Endless for example list their pad thickness for the Supra @ 20mm. Are there different ways of measuring pad thickness? Maybe they cheekily include the backing plate?

Back to this again. OEM data is a bit tricky, but i'm fairly certain the numbers are either accurate, or close enough to be representative Here's the progression of my braking setup So with my new setup, i'm dropping another 3.4kgs (7.5lbs). That's 5.6kgs (12.3lbs) less than OEM. Unsprung of...

Can't believe i forgot to post this part....considering how important it is To defeat the GT3, one must first become the GT3 - Yoda

If you've never tried a harness, def find a car with them installed and ride shotgun (or drive?). Seats are very nice. But the harness also keeps you from moving around and let's you focus on driving rather than having to keep bracing yourself everytime you turn or brake. They're really...

Finally shipped. I've also spoken to both Nitron and Suspension Secrets about the spring rate debate. Suspension Secrets folks think i should go ahead and try the ones i've already ordered and then get back to them. Nitron on the other hand were a lot happier to recommend the Track/Race...

Hello. "Third Worlder" Lebanese here. Get bent. I know your type. The "welfare for me but not for thee" type. I'm shocked
