meine auto and the ring.

The geometry is interesting, definitely, and some on here on the right thread / right day may be able to discuss it for a long time - but for others, it's a black hole.

I think on a %-age basis, it is not the overiding concern on basically tinkering about trying to alter a road car's behaviour.

That's back to tyre pressures, ride height, front camber, front toe, ARBs (IMO).

 

no, like the thinking though.


from that animation, it looks like the outer rear wheel would lose neg camber ( or gain pos i spose ) under roll....is that right? not good if it is


I agree with you Chris, although we got there from different directions, the way forward is too increase front end grip as much as possible...then if you still need more lift-off goodness you take away a small amount of rear grip.

 

Id say the Powerflex rear axle bushes were the best single modification I ever made to the Corrado

 

You think Im ever likely to have run knackered bushes?

 

On my corrado at the moment i run powerflex bushes all round, standard arb up front with poly bushes and eibach arb round the back coupled with not so clever fk coilies and mk3 top mounts, not set to low tho(hate very low cars)

Handling is absolutelly superb!

Tried without extra rear arb and car was allot more understeery and unsetled through the twisties rolling allot more

Mind you corrado front arb is thicker in the middle where it matters than a mk2/mk3 standard bar

I am tracking the corrado at curborough later on this month and will find out if the relatively simple set up is as good on tre track

 

The car was originally a stolen/recovered G60, it was rebuilt into a full spec VR6 and was finished. ran it as a finished car
for aprox 5 years as a daily driver/track car.

with OE rear axle bushes in perfect condition, the rear axle on it was off a late VR with 30k miles

i did see that Still doesn’t alter the fact that I still think the Powerflex bushes are a vast improvement over the OE bushes even if new/perfect condition, and that’s from personal experience

 

mine on dead ahead/slight toe out stabilised the car no end.

 

stupid point then.. adding the spacers to the front? whats the odds on that sorting it out

 

dissapointing the duke did you tbh..... cool pics though

 

no, i decimated the duke at the next corner. i would have "done him" sooner but for my slightly under in understeer

 

Looks like you have too much roll at the rear, have you thought about fitting an anti-roll bar
