First off, that have nothing to do with the JIC, even my friends evo with stock shocks (longer strocks) lift his inside tire up.

2nd, lifting the rear tires doesnt mean you have bad suspension tuning.

I believe RRE is a good tuner, but I live in the other side of the country and I don't believe in mail in suspension tuning, there is no such thing as one size fit all. How do they corner weight my suspension without my car or me sitting in the car? they can't go to the track or autox that I go to to help me test and tune it. And I have to sent them my coilover everytime I change or remove parts in my car? Also driving preference is different form one individual to another, some like to go with heavy front rate and lighter rear rate and some like it the opposite. Some want stability during cornering and some like it loose for rotation....etc. Happy tunning!

Hey Kevo. That was me in the ralli red evo. You had some seriously fast times, 2 seconds over the next evo, which was my friend in my car. Mine is completely stock on stock tires, so my friend did pretty well. I on the other hand have some work to do, as I was over a second off from him in my own car.

Your car corners flatter and is more balanced in the slalom compared to the stock evos. Do you attribute that more to the shocks or the coilovers? I would like to eventually set up my car for A-stock, and I am contemplating Toyo RA-1 tires and some shocks. Can you recommend a shop for the shocks?

Hi turbotaz, Sorry I didn't get to talk to you at the event. I'm having trouble to break into the 39s. Its there but I keep making little mistake here and there. I would say the most important thing is tire. Toyo are ok for autox but you want something to heat up faster like Kumho or Hoosiers. I would start with Kumho if you are new to r compound. Hoosier will provide the best dry grip but they are fragile and won't last as long as Kumho.

If you are looking to run in AS, you might want to look into some custom valve Koni(you can contact Truechoice or ground control). I personally don't have any experience with them but they are the ticket for a lot of Stock class runners. But I will definitely consider tire first. I shaved about 1 sec running with r compound at Orchard beach lot. Maybe a little less at other site which doesn't have the flat and smooth surface like Orchard Beach provide.

May I ask what kind of alignment setting you are running because thats pretty critcal. At Orchard beach, I'm running 1/8 toe out in the front and 0 toe in the rear. -3 camber in the front and -1.6 rear. For the course we ran on Sunday, I need even more - camber in the front.
