Car Setup Help
Re: Car Setup Help
Just adding a data point to the discussion, when I want to poly and delrin on the old FSP car, I got a lot more noise in the suspension and car during street use. Because of this, when I built the Camaro, I went with new rubber bushings on the control arms since I planned on driving it on the street and it not being just a race car.

A lot more noise in what respect? I feel like i could probably tolerate a fair amount, but this certainly isnt strictly race kawrMARKP wrote: ↑Tue Feb 08, 2022 8:46 am Just adding a data point to the discussion, when I want to poly and delrin on the old FSP car, I got a lot more noise in the suspension and car during street use.

Noise over bumps, general harshness in the suspension.

Re: Car Setup Help
Isn't that the point of using delrin bushings? Harshness and faster response are two sides of the same coin.general harshness in the suspension.

With the roads around knoxville, imagine loading your clothes dryer with various sizes of rocks. Run it and sit on the dryer. Some might like it.

Re: Car Setup Help

Re: Car Setup Help
There is a lot of downside to delrin (noise, harshness, binding), but not really a lot of upside on a street tired street car.

I wouldnt mind taking a look underneath, as im sure my parts wont be here yet. Did you install the bars? If so, how hard was it?DBOWMANEOD wrote: ↑Sun Feb 13, 2022 4:55 pm I'm in the grey 2015 sti from last season. I bought the whiteline kit for mine. Endlinks and bushings came with it. I daily mine.

Re: Car Setup Help
We had a jack and had each end of the car on stands. We did everything in one day. It's not as hard as my downpipe was
