Hey Kyle - are you okay with the date / day of the week (June 1, Wed)? You don't have to commit to getting anything done yet, but I want to make sure you can take advantage of this if you decide to do so. I need to book the ticket soon or it will get more expensive, so let me know - thanks!

 

so am I coming midweek or on the weekend for a trackday?

 

The next open track day on Pacific Raceway around that time is Tuesday June 7th (Novice/Intermediate/Advanced Lapping Day). However, considering how dead this thread is, it looks like I'm going to be the only guy anyway. I'll give you a ring Monday and we'll figure something out.

 

I need to check out my suspension, I think one of the shocks needs to be rebuilt. I would hate to have it setup only to have to take it apart again. Let me take a look and try and figure out if I can get it fixed in time to take part of this.

 

ok - I booked the ticket, so the date is confirmed (alhtough it can be changed if needed).

 

Bump - still hoping for some more interest ....

 

I sent my suspension off for warranty...hopefully it will be back in time. Turns out I had one leaky shock and excessive play in another.

 

What were the symptons / noises? I noticed a new noise from my right front shock today, so I'm curious / worried.

 

I had some rattling/clunking sounds. I took a look and all the bolts were tight, but when I moved the strut around I could feel some play where the piston mates up to the shock. I also found some oil leaking on one of the rears from the same area. Apparently it's not uncommon for JIC's to have problems of this type.

 

Hm, that's different from I heard on my car (more like a squishing rubber noise). Guess I won't worry about it - thanks!

 

I've searched the site a couple times but couldn't find more information about this suspension setup. Could you post a link with more info about this package with the Espilir springs?

My suspension is stock now except for more neg camber using the stock eccentric bolt. I also have 17x9's with 255 pilot cups. I run the car about 6 times a year in lapping days but am more interested in a street-tuned suspension for canyon driving. I wouldn't want super stiff spring rates or a really low ride-height. Would this work for my needs? Can I fit 275's with one-piece wheels?

 

I found the links on the first post. Sounds impressive. Is this stricktly a track tune with lots of neg camber or would this work for both street/track?

 

Hi Eric - give Robi a call (his number is on the first post too, click on the link to his site). He's a slow typer (he says) so he doesn't post much, but he's very helpful on the phone .

 

Two in thanks ..

 

Ok, I'm prepaid for items 1-6. See you next wednesday.
