Hello, I am prepping for the new SCCA season here in HI that starts in Aug and I am posting up a setup which I would like critiqued for Auto-X purposes. The setup I am posting is what I believe may be a good setting and then adjust from there but it would help for those who have more experience than I to add in anything that may be better to start off with.


Enkei RPF1 18x10.5 +15, 275/40/18 square setup

HKS Hypermax 3 Sport - Since these are a linear base setup with 11kg front and 12kg rear spring rates, I have set them to 3 clicks from full hard front and 2 clicks from full hard in the rear. I am max lowered on the rear and just above the fender in the front.

Camber setting - Front -2.7, Rear -2.2

toe settings - (for now, just within OEM specs)

caster - (OEM Specs)

Swar Bar setting - Front Medium Stiff, Rear Full Soft (whiteline heavy duty bars with powergrid endlinks)

 

IMO that is a good starting point.

This is almost similar to my setup. Only differences are -2.5f, -2.0r cambers, 275/35's, OSG LSD and KW V2s set at 8 clicks from hard f&r. I've used my setup on 3 AutoX sessions and I loved how the car easily rotates. I feel it is a solid neutral balance.

 

I would change to a 275/35 or 285/35 tire, much better compounds available and it will change your great ratio. It's a win win situation.

 

I thought about going 285/35 but I didn't want to run into the -3 camber range. How off would my speedo/gear ratio be by running this setup?

 

about 2-3mph in lower speeds, 4-6 in the higher speeds. Not that bad.

I would drop the rear camber a little, add front camber, add caster and toe. I would make my front bar full stiff. What tires are you running?

 

I am currently on a brand new set of bridge stone re11
