Definitely do LSD before suspension work. It will be probably the best upgrade you can do to a car aside from tires. In all honesty I think it should be a priority mod to go along with the driver mod. It completely changes how a car can be driven rather then most other mods will just make it able to be driven better.

Wheel and tire setup makes all the difference for me. Doesn't even have to be R-Comps. Z1 star specs or RS3s ftw....Made me go from bottom of the field in raw time to the half way, and then going to lightweight wheels (29lbs>18lbs) put me into the top 10-15% in just my second year of doing it. Also driver mod with that too.

Do the LSD, it will be the best bang for your car. Quaife is great for autoX too...

 

Teh grip....

 

I would like to hear the story on that one.^

Is that countersteer, or setup for the next turn?

 

Going into the finish at Fedex Field....the counter steer resulted in a big time tire cut down.

 

... MOAR NEGATIVE CAMBER!!!!

 

I run about -2.2 in the back and -2.5 in the front. I am going up in spring rate and MOAR fender work on the front to get the ride height down another .3-.4 (should get me to about -2.8-2.9, which is where I want it). The front rate is because on concrete the car just rolls too much in transitions. I am also switching shocks for next year. Off come the Motons and on go custom Ohlins TTX. That stuff plus aero and wider wheels should move me even more towards the pointy end of the Nats podium.

 

O.o, the annual Nationals video is out:

Pretty fancy/shiny rear bumper at 2:58

 

That's pretty nuts! What size wheels are you running here?

 

Small. 18x10.5's +15 on all 4 with 315/30 A6's.
