IIRC, I had 30 in the front and about 40 in the rear...gbwrx wrote:What tire pressures you running Marcus?

In all honesty, I need something that doesn't suck for the daily grind... I'm talkin' to you OEM STI struts!
And yes, I'll be calling you later on this week for a drive/ride. I must experience the comfort of the Ohlins FPS!

Seems like 30 is pretty low.
The struts I have won't make the car Nationally competitive but it will make it better than stock.

Re: Good event mista Disney
yeah, but you are going to have a hard (impossible?) time getting a high enough spring rate that will fit on a factory type strut. You could do some ground control stuff, but I'd be afraid of hurting those ohlin's.Budman wrote:gbwrx wrote:Seems like 30 is pretty low.

Re: Good event mista Disney
I liked the course a lot as well. (the two times I ran) I guess a stock saturn engine with 130k miles doesn't like the abuse. I didn't really get a good feel for the R comps yet, but man are they faster than those $44 firestone specials! I have to get used to turning that hard. I think I'll have the car back together by the next event, but not sure I'll make it. I dying to get back out on those tires though... Thanks again.

find someone else with a Saturn who would like to run DSP and you can co-drive with them on those tires!bysiklest wrote:I liked the course a lot as well.

I think I'm going to bump up my pressures in Chatt and see what happens... Hopefully I'll get the RCE sways on Friday/Saturday.
